Three Melburnians have wrapped up their weekend with a celebratory bang, each landing a coveted division one prize in TattsLotto draw 4459 on Saturday, 13 April 2024. Each of the winners from Victoria has claimed a substantial $862,332.62 share of the national jackpot.
Among the lucky trio, a Melbourne woman expressed jubilant plans to “put a smile on lots of people’s faces” after confirming her win with officials .
Overjoyed, she shared that she initially mistook the winning notification for a scam.
"It’s very exciting that after all these years of playing, it’s finally paid off,” she said. The woman, who had placed a QuickPick entry through The Lott’s official website, is planning to pay off her mortgage and treat her family with the prize money.
In Footscray, another Victorian winner remains shrouded in mystery, having opted to stay anonymous. This shopper secured their division one ticket at the Footscray Lottery Centre, promising their own quiet celebration away from the public eye.
The third winner from Cheltenham, however, has yet to claim their prize.
Purchased at Southland Lotteries, the winning entry is unregistered, leaving lotto officials waiting anxiously for the winner to come forward.
Farah Jabeen, the owner of Southland Lotteries, highlighted the significance of the win for her store, marking their first division one sale under her management.
“We can’t wait to see their reaction when they get the news,” she added.
