Powerball draw 1517: Search for mystery Aussie who scored ENTIRE $100 million jackpot
One lucky Aussie has woken up $100 million richer this morning, but they may be completely oblivious. The search is on for the mystery winner of Thursday night's Powerball jackpot — the biggest of the year. The Sydney resident held the only division one winning entry in draw 1517, but the identity of the ticket holder, who is now Australia's third-highest lotto winner ever, remains unknown. Lottery officials said they are eagerly waiting for the country's newest multi-millionaire to come forward and have urged anyone who purchased an entry in the city's eastern suburbs to check their tickets "as soon as possible". "Someone has become an overnight mid-week multi-millionaire but possibly doesn't know it yet," The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart said. "We can't wait for them to discover this winning news! Just imagine how $100 million might change your life and the lives of your nearest and dearest. 'If you discover you're holding the division one winning entry, hold on tight to that ticket and phone 131 868 as soon as possible so that we can start the prize claim process." The winning numbers for Powerball draw 1517: 28, 10, 3, 16, 31, 14 and 21, with the all-important Powerball number 6. In addition to the $100 million division one winner, there were six division two winners who each scored $282,415.55, and another 3,056,245 wins across divisions two to nine that collectively took home more than $60.9 million in prize money. The jackpot doubled after last week's $50m draw failed to be won. With this week's massive offering, officials from The Lott anticipated up to half of all adults in the country would be purchasing a ticket. There are more chances to win big with Tuesday's Oz Lotto offering $8 million, while next week's Powerball has $4 million up for grabs. ✈️ One thing a $100m Powerball win could buy you that's better than holidays, homes, and cars 💰 $100 million Powerball winner reveals how her life has changed 😴 Dad claims $60m Powerball jackpot after 'vivid' dream about winning The last big win was back in early May, when a man from Cessnock in NSW became an instant multi-millionaire with an incredible $30m win. He burst into uncontrollable laughter when he heard the good news, and said he saw the win as a sign of good things to come after having a "rough trot" lately. "I just had this ticket on the fridge. I was looking at it this afternoon and thought, 'wouldn't it be lovely to win'," he told The Lott. "The ticket was there with all the bills. There will be no more worrying about bills now. I don't care if I get a bill now!" Only six Aussies know what it's like to win $100m. One of those lucky winners was a Queensland woman who took home half of the record-breaking $200m Powerball jackpot last February. Reflecting on her win more than a year on, the new millionaire revealed she's since embraced a sea change, relocating from the suburb of Hawthorne in Brisbane to a serene coastal home. "I often speak with my partner about the version of us from last year to now, and if only we knew what was to come," she said. "On a day-to-day basis, not a huge amount has changed. I still get up for the 6am gym session, and the dog still needs to be walked and fed. The longer-term vision we have for our life is slowly coming together." Do you have a story tip?

$100 million Powerball win sparks ATO, Centrelink warning for every Aussie: 'Trap'
Australians are being warned about the potential implications of winning the lottery following last night's $100 million Powerball draw. It was the biggest Powerball jackpot of 2025, and one lucky person walked away as the sole jackpot winner. However, there are a few stipulations worth considering as we get close to tax time and how a massive sum of cash like this can affect you. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) had some handy advice. "You don't need to declare your winnings to us, and you won't pay tax on them," the tax office said. RELATED Major lottery warning after Aussie winners reveal what they spent their money on Centrelink cash boost coming from July 1 for millions of Aussies Aussie teen's job paying $300 per hour without a uni degree "But, any interest earned on the winnings will need to be included in your assessable income." If you were the sole winner of the jackpot and had it sitting in a savings account with a 5 per cent interest rate, you would generate around $5 million in just one year. Come tax time next year, you would have to pay tax on that immense amount of money. First Financial's James Wrigley told Yahoo Finance you should seek out advice from professionals if you win big as they can guide you into divvying up the money wisely before you spend it Australia doesn't always count lottery wins in its income assessment. This is because it assesses what you might earn on a regular basis and hitting the jackpot is stored under the "unlikely to happen again" and "hard to predict" categories. It's also because the money wasn't from "a service or work provided". But it depends on how you accept the payment. Lottery winners can usually either get it as a lump sum payment, or they can choose to have it spread out in regular payment intervals over several years. Services Australia will treat it as part of the income assessment if you pick the latter option because then it would be regular income, and that could drastically reduce how much Centrelink you receive. That's what happened to South Australian resident Frank Kemmler, who was kicked off his disability support pension after winning a $60,000 lotto prize. While he was stoked at the sudden influx of cash, he claimed he wasn't given an option between the lump sum or regular payments. The Adelaide man had to foot the bill for GP appointments and medication that was previously paid for by his pension. "I'm just trying to stop other people from falling into the same trap,' he told A Current Affair. 'These people that are buying these [lottery] tickets, there's no warning anywhere … to say that you're going to lose your pension. Centrelink recipients have been urged to tell Services Australia as soon as possible about their new financial situation. Even if you take a lump sum payment, your payments could still be affected. Depending on how much you win, the government body will include your lottery earnings as part of your asset test. If it's over a certain amount, combined with your other assets, your payments could be reduced or switched off. The winning numbers in Powerball draw 1517 on Thursday, 12 12 were 28, 10, 3, 16, 31, 14 and 21. The all-important Powerball number was 6. The person who won the entire $100 million jackpot purchased their ticket in Sydney's eastern suburbs. There were also six division two winners, who scored $282,415.55 each. In addition to them, there were 3,056,245 wins across divisions two to nine in the draw, and they have shared in more than $60.9 million of prize money. That's an average win of $19 each. Half of all Australian adults were expected to have bought a ticket for the megadraw. More than 10 million people bought a ticket for the last $100 million draw in November last year. If you didn't win, rest assured that scoring the grand prize has odds of one to 134 in to access your portfolio
