Mystery Aussie Wins $20 Million Oz Lotto Jackpot on Melbourne Cup Night
On the night of the Melbourne Cup, luck struck big for one Australian, as a single punter claimed the enormous $20 million Oz Lotto jackpot. The division one prize was scooped up entirely by just one ticket, making this a life-changing win for an as-yet unidentified winner. Interestingly, the new multi-millionaire is not a West Australian ticketholder, meaning the prize has landed somewhere else in the country.
The winning numbers for Oz Lotto draw #1655 were 21, 17, 43, 25, 12, 18, and 14, with the supplementary numbers being 15, 42, and 24. While the division one winner remains a mystery, West Australians did have something to cheer about, with two locals sharing a division two prize of $49,270 each, alongside four other ticketholders. Division three saw 66 winners nationwide, each pocketing a tidy sum of over $5,290.

The winning ticket was purchased at Broadway Newsagency in Sydney, but because the buyer hasn’t registered as a member of The Lott Members Club, officials currently have no way of contacting them. “It’s possible this mystery winner is going about their day completely unaware that they’ve scored $20 million,” said Khat McIntyre from The Lott. “Imagine how your plans for the rest of the day and the rest of your life might change with a prize of this magnitude!”
Oz Lotto officials are urging anyone who purchased a ticket from Broadway Newsagency to double-check their tickets immediately. The winner is being strongly encouraged to contact The Lott on 131 868 to claim their prize and begin the process of turning this sudden windfall into reality.
This massive prize follows another recent jackpot win in Sydney, where $100 million was claimed earlier this year. It also comes just days after a West Aussie won $2.5 million in a $20 million megadraw. Clearly, luck has been shining brightly across the nation lately, and the Melbourne Cup night Oz Lotto winner is the latest to have fortune smile on them.
For now, the identity of this mystery multi-millionaire remains unknown, but once discovered, they’ll instantly become one of Australia’s wealthiest lottery winners, changing their life forever in a single lucky draw.
