West Aussie Becomes Overnight Multimillionaire After Oz Lotto Mega Win
So, there’s been a huge splash of lottery excitement in Australia, and it all centres around the latest Oz Lotto draw — number 1660 — which turned two ordinary Aussies into multimillionaires overnight. The total jackpot was a massive $30 million, and it ended up being split right down the middle. One lucky winner from Western Australia and another from New South Wales will each be pocketing an eye-watering $15 million. Imagine checking your ticket and realising your entire life has just changed in a single moment.
Lotterywest confirmed that the WA winning ticket wasn’t bought in a physical outlet this time — it was purchased online through Play Online. That means someone sitting at home, probably in their pyjamas with a cup of tea, unknowingly clicked their way into becoming one of the country’s newest millionaires.
But the good news didn’t stop there. Division two winners also had plenty to celebrate, especially in WA. Five players from the State managed to score division two prizes, each taking home a neat $18,429.45. It’s not $15 million, of course, but it’s still a pretty sweet bump to anyone’s bank account, especially this close to the holiday season.

Nationwide, division three also produced a huge number of winners — 262 of them — and each person will receive $1,995.15. It’s the kind of amount that doesn’t exactly retire you, but it definitely makes life a little easier for a while.
The winning numbers for this draw were 21, 15, 3, 6, 9, 33 and 19, with supplementary numbers 31, 14 and 7. If anyone is double-checking their ticket right now, these are the ones to look for.
According to Lotterywest spokesperson Jake Battrick, this new WA win is yet another big moment in what has already been a strong year for Western Australian lotto luck. Earlier in September, a Perth resident bagged $7.5 million from a Slikpik 18 ticket. So this latest win marks the second division one strike for the State this year, and Lotterywest says they can’t wait to meet the newest multimillionaire.
Adding to the recent streak of good fortune, another big hit landed just days earlier in Perth’s southern suburbs. A Millionaire Medley ticket sold at The Lucky Charm Bull Creek delivered a $2 million prize. The store’s owner, Onna Lawton, couldn’t be happier — she’s decorated the entire kiosk with balloons and signs to celebrate the store’s first division one jackpot since she took over in 2019. For her, and for the winner, it’s been a long time coming.
It’s been a whirlwind of luck around WA lately, and it looks like the winning streak isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
