£3.6m EuroMillions prize remains unclaimed in UK
EuroMillions ticket holders have been told to search through their handbags and trouser pockets, as a prize worth a staggering £3.6 million is yet to be claimed. The winning ticket was bought in the local authority area Fife in Scotland for the draw on Friday 13 June. The winning numbers on that date were 2, 28, 40, 43, 45 and the Lucky Star numbers were 3 and 7, with the missing ticket holder matching the five main numbers and one Lucky Star number. The lucky ticket holder now has until 10 December 2025 to claim their prize. 'It's time to search through handbags, purses, trouser pockets and the car – everywhere and anywhere – as a ticket is lurking which is worth £3.6M,' said Andy Carter, senior winners advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery. He urged those who live or work in the area to take a minute to find their ticket and join the other lucky £3.6M EuroMillions winners. The jackpot on Friday 13 June was the largest EuroMillions prize ever up for grabs in the UK and Ireland and had been capped at €250m – or £208m. The record prize was rolled over after nobody won the jackpot. In total, more than 92,000 players in Ireland won prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games. Anyone not in possession of their ticket, for whatever reason, but who believes they have a genuine claim can still make a claim in writing to Allwyn, but it must be within 30 days of the draw. If no-one comes forward with the winning ticket before the prize claim deadline, then the prize money, plus all the interest it has generated, will go to help National Lottery-funded projects across the UK.

Mystery Scots EuroMillions winner hasn't claimed £3.6 million fortune
A multi-million prize lies unclaimed after it was bought in Scotland this month. A mystery Scots lottery winner has yet to come forward to claim their £3.6 million fortune two weeks after the draw. Lottery bosses have revealed that the winning ticket hasn't been claimed after the ticket was bought in Fife on June 13. Now a desperate search is underway to find the person who won a share of £208 million after matching six Euromillions balls, from the numbers 2, 28, 40, 43, 45 and Lucky Stars 3 and 7. The winners split the huge prize fund after the jackpot hit its cap from previous rollovers. Winners have 180 days after the draw to come forward and claim their prize and must have reached out by December 10. However, anyone who thinks they have won but have since lost their ticket must write to the lottery within 30 days. Andy Carter, senior winners advisor at National Lottery operator Allwyn, advised players to get hunting through their cars and pockets for the winning ticket. He said: 'Do you live or work in the area, do you have family and friends there who you were visiting or were you just passing through? 'It's time to search through handbags, purses, trouser pockets and the car. 'Check everywhere and anywhere as a ticket is lurking which is worth £3.6m. 'Someone who bought a ticket in Fife is now a multi-millionaire and we are desperate to unite this lucky player with their winnings.'
