A Hamilton resident could be a multi-millionaire and they don’t even know it yet.

The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) is reminding players to check their tickets and email inboxes because tens of millions of dollars remain unclaimed.

Three separate $1 million winning tickets from Tuesday’s (Apr. 19) Maxmillions draw were each sold in Hamilton, Bowmanville, and Chatham-Kent County.

Also, according to OLG, an email congratulating the winner of the $60 million Lotto Max draw is sitting in someone’s inbox.

Lotto Max draws are Tuesdays and Fridays. For each $5 play, players receive three sets of seven numbers ranging from one to fifty. Players must match all seven numbers, in any one set, to win the jackpot or the Maxmillion prizes.

The next Lotto Max jackpot is estimated at $17 million.

Elsewhere in the province, a $1 million Encore ticket was in Oakville and two $100,000 tickets were sold in Thunder Bay and Whitby.
