Single Oz Lotto winner claims early Easter present worth $70 million
A single ticketholder from Queensland has claimed the entire $70 million Oz Lotto jackpot.
The winning numbers for tonight’s draw number 1626 were 14, 32, 13, 29, 41, 23 and 8 with supplementary numbers 43, 4 and 40.
If the winner is a single person rather than a syndicate, they’ll become an instant millionaire in time for Easter and Oz Lotto’s second biggest individual lottery winner.
Oz Lotto said thousands of entries per minute were generated at lottery outlets and online.
“The last time we saw a $70 million Oz Lotto draw was in January 2025 when the peak of sales was at 12.06pm on the day of the draw when 4297 tickets were sold in a single minute,” said The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell.
Mystery lottery winner takes nine months to claim staggering $1.8 billion prize
In February, officials from The Lott contacted a woman from Elizabeth Hills in Western Sydney shortly after the draw to tell her she’d won the $100 million Oz Lotto prize, thanks to her ticket being registered to an online account.
