ONE lucky local with an unregistered TattsLotto ticket could soon be pocketing more than $613,000, with NewsXpress Armstrong Creek\u00a0awaiting the Division 1 winner to come forward and claim their six-figure prize.<\/p>\n
The mystery Geelong winner held one of the seven Division 1 winning entries nationally in TattsLotto draw 4039, which was drawn on Saturday, April 4.<\/p>\n
Each entry took home a Division 1 prize of $613,016.67.<\/p>\n
NewsXpress Armstrong Creek owner Wayne Davis said because the ticket was unregistered, officials from the Lott had no way of contacting the winner to inform them of their life changing prize earnings.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve only been open seven months. This is the first Division 1 winner I\u2019ve sold at this store,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cA lot of people don\u2019t come forward and wait for things to cool off. An unregistered ticket means someone\u2019s just walked off the street and bought a ticket, so it could be sitting in their pocket without them knowing that they\u2019ve won.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you\u2019ve bought a ticket from us, make sure you get it checked, (especially) in this time of need. We might be in a bad time, but dreams do still happen for people.\u201d<\/p>\n
TattsLotto spokesperson Bronwyn Spencer encouraged anyone who purchased a TattsLotto ticket in draw 4039 from NewsXpress Armstrong to either search for or check their tickets.<\/p>\n
\u201cMake sure you check your wallet, handbag, fridge door and car glovebox. Previous winners have found valuable tickets in all sorts of strange places,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can check your numbers on the Lott website, via the Lott app and at your local retail outlet.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you discover you are holding the winning ticket, contact us on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.\u201d<\/p>\n
