Australia: confined, she forgets to validate her winning lotto ticket

More fear than harm. An Australian took two weeks to validate her lottery ticket that she had literally forgotten.

While she was confined, like all the inhabitants of the Fairfield region, southwest of Sydney, the young woman forgot to check her ticket. “Because of the confinement, I had not checked it. I was thinking of a million other things, ”she told Yahoo News Australia.

It was two weeks after the draw that the Australian decided to check her ticket on the Internet. “I checked my ticket online and the victory appeared on my screen.” She thus won the modest sum of one million dollars (approximately 630,000 euros). An amount that will make his life easier, once the health measures are lifted. “I think I can pay off my entire mortgage. And when the lockdown is lifted, I’ll definitely plan a vacation. It will be incredible! ”.

Good news in a complicated context. Indeed, the area where the lucky winner lives is subject to tighter containment than the rest of Sydney, as the Delta variant continues to climb in the region.
