A fortunate but unidentified individual from the Lake Macquarie region is sitting on a life-changing secret, holding an unclaimed lottery ticket worth a cool $1 million.
The Elusive Million-Dollar Ticket
The golden ticket was purchased from the Cameron Park Newsagency, located at Cameron Park Plaza. It emerged as the sole division one winner across the entire nation in the Weekday Windfall draw 4643, which was held on Friday, December 26, 2025.
Despite the draw occurring several days ago, the massive prize has not yet been collected. Officials from The Lott have confirmed they are eagerly awaiting contact from the winner. A spokesperson has issued a public plea, "very much encouraging" anyone who bought a ticket from that specific newsagency to check their entries immediately.
Hunter Region's New Year Windfall
In a separate but equally thrilling stroke of luck for the wider Hunter and Central Coast area, a Wyong man has secured a massive financial boost just before the new year. His winning ticket was one of seven division one entries nationally in the Saturday Lotto draw 4637 on Saturday, December 27, 2025.
His total prize money amounted to an impressive $941,349.30, providing a spectacular start to 2026. While this winner has come forward to claim his fortune, the search continues for the millionaire from Lake Macquarie.
Check Your Tickets and Play Responsibly
The ongoing mystery serves as a timely reminder for all lottery players in the region to double-check any recent tickets, especially those bought from the Cameron Park outlet. The difference between an ordinary day and a millionaire lifestyle could be sitting unnoticed in a wallet or purse.
