A Dundonian could be unaware of their new millionaire status, as a winning EuroMillions ticket sold in the city has yet to be claimed.
The National Lottery is hunting for a EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker winner who can claim £1,000,000 and a safari.
Each week, the draw creates four millionaires – two on Tuesday and two on Friday – but one successful ticket has yet to be claimed.
The winner bought their ticket in Dundee.
The search is now on to find the owner of the winning ticket and players in the area are being urged to check and double-check their unique Millionaire Maker code for the chance to become an instant millionaire.
For every EuroMillions line played, UK players automatically receive a EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker code printed on their ticket. The winning code for this unclaimed prize from the draw on Tuesday 28 March 2017 was XRVT 79106. The lucky ticket-holder has until 24 September 2017 to claim their prize.
Anyone not in possession of their ticket, for whatever reason, but who believes they have a genuine claim can still make a claim in writing to Camelot, but it must be within 30 days of the draw.
If no-one comes forward with the winning ticket before the prize claim deadline, then the prize money, plus all the interest it has generated, will go to help National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.
Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery said: “We’re desperate to find this mystery ticket-holder and unite them with their winnings, this amazing prize could really make a huge difference to somebody’s life.
“Thanks to EuroMillions Mega Week, £1m plus an ultimate luxury safari prize would certainly be an amazing introduction to the millionaire lifestyle.
“We’re urging everyone who bought a ticket in this area to check their old EuroMillions tickets again or look anywhere a missing ticket could be hiding, so that this prize can turn someone into the newest member of the lottery millionaire club.
“Try checking in the pockets of clothing, in wallets, bags and down the back of the sofa. We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win.”
With all National Lottery draws, players have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their prize if they have the winning ticket.
Anyone who has any queries or who believes they have the winning ticket for any of the National Lottery draws within the 180-day deadline should call the National Lottery Line on 0844 338 7551 or email help@national-lottery.co.uk
