Toowoomba: Lotto winner scores $3.3 million, but hasn't answered the phone
One lucky lotto player is $3.3 million richer after the weekend's draw. The only problem? They don't know it yet. A division one ticket worth $3.3 million, sold at Campbell's News & Casket in Toowoomba, was one of six national winners in Saturday's Gold Lotto draw. But despite being a registered player, the mystery winner hasn't picked up the phone. The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell said she's been trying to deliver the life-changing news, but every call has hit a dead end. 'I was ready to reveal the life-enhancing news to the region's newest division one winner,' she said. 'But sadly, whenever I called the number provided, it said it was disconnected.' The ticket was part of the Members Club, meaning the winner's details were on file, just not up to date. Each of the six winning entries from the May 10 draw scored $3,333,333.34. 'If you purchased an entry from Campbell's News & Casket and haven't checked it yet, this could be your moment,' Ms Hobdell urged. 'We're asking all players to dig out their tickets and check now.' The winning numbers were 1, 35, 18, 25, 45 and 38, with supplementary numbers 4 and 16. Queensland accounted for one of the six division one wins nationally, with the others spread across New South Wales and Victoria. The Lott has now crowned 402 division one winners so far in FY25 — but one of them is still out there, possibly with a $3.3 million ticket sitting unnoticed on a kitchen bench.
