In a statement Wednesday, OLG said the June 21 jackpot did not win, but four $ 1 million Maxmillions tickets each sold in York, Peel, Oshawa and OLG.ca.
In addition, an award-winning $ 500,000 ticket was sold in the Niagara area, OLG says.
The next Lotto Max draw on Friday will offer a $ 65 million jackpot plus 10 MAXMILLIONS prizes.
Last week, the winner of a $ 1 million Lotto Max prize lost his money after the ticket expired.
Someone who bought a Lotto Max ticket in Toronto won the Maxmillions Prize in the June 15, 2021 draw, but the money was never claimed.
The Lotto Max winners have one year from the draw date to claim their prize.
“It’s unfortunate, and it happens occasionally, big prizes like this, they seldom go unnoticed,” OLG spokesman Tony Bitonti told CTV News Toronto.
Bitonti said the winning ticket was never checked at a retail store or on the OLG app, which means the winner probably made a mistake.
The company reminds players to check their tickets at OLG.ca using the OLG app or by calling 416-870-8946.
