A $5 million lottery prize that was won nearly one year ago is still unclaimed.

The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation said that there are two weeks left to claim the prize.

The winning ticket for the Saturday, May 4, 2024 Lotto 6/49 draw was sold in Woodstock.

The winning numbers for the draw were 2 – 16 – 21 – 27 – 38 – 45 with Bonus number 43, the OLG said.

Players must match all six numbers to win the jackpot prize and have one year from the draw date to claim it, the OLG said.

“OLG makes sure the right prizes are paid to the right people every time,” the Crown corporation said.

“Our prize claim verification ensures that prize ownership and eligibility is confirmed before a prize is paid. If you believe you bought the winning ticket, or perhaps lost it, please be prepared to provide specific details including where and when your ticket was purchased when calling OLG Customer Care.”
