A mystery Melburnian is yet to realize they have struck it rich, winning a staggering $4 million in the Powerball draw 1434. The fortunate ticket holder, as yet unknown, was one of two division one winners in the draw held on Thursday, November 9, 2023.
Lotto officials are waiting for the winner to come forward, as they have no means to contact the newly minted millionaire directly.
The winning ticket was purchased at Lilydale Village Lotto & News, located at Shop 5 Lilydale Village, 343-347 Main Street, Lilydale. Rakesh Aggarwal, the owner of the outlet, expressed his exhilaration at having sold a division one winning entry just five months after entering the lottery business.
“There aren’t enough words for us to express the excitement we’re feeling after helping change someone’s life in last night’s $8 million Powerball draw,” Aggarwal shared.
He also mentioned how his store had already sold two division one winning entries, including this recent Powerball win.
The community is encouraged to check their tickets, as the winner could be anyone who visited the store.
The winning numbers in the Powerball draw were 35, 15, 3, 23, 34, 29, and 30, with the Powerball number 2. There were two division one winning entries in this draw across Australia, leaving one lucky person in Melbourne with a life-altering fortune to claim.
