Australia’s latest millionaire may not even know about his huge win as the hunt continues to find the lucky lottery winner.
Someone who purchased a ticket for the Monday and Wednesday Lotto draw at Gundagai in the NSW Riverina scored the only Division 1 winning entry in Monday night’s draw and won $1 million.
They bought the ticket at Gundagai Foodworks and LPO, a two-hour drive west of Canberra – but no one has yet come forward to claim their winnings.
The entry was not recorded, meaning Lotto officials have no way of contacting the winner with the exciting news.
The winner has entered draw 4374 and it is now up to them to step in and claim their prize.

The winning numbers for Monday and Wednesday Lotto draw 4374 were 2, 4, 16, 27, 34 and 39, and the additional numbers were 11 and 18.
Gundagai Foodworks and LPO Supervisor Katie Morris said her team was delighted to have sold a division one winning entry and looked forward to uniting their customer with their prize.
“This is very exciting news for a small country town like Gundagai,” she said.
“We are really impressed this morning after realizing our outlet sold a million dollar entry.
“The mystery winner could be anyone walking around town, or a passing visitor.
“We hope they will check their ticket soon and come forward to claim their prize.”
“Congratulations to the mystery winner.
“We can’t wait to hear when you checked your ticket and realized you were a million dollars richer.”
