Unclaimed Mega Millions Prize Set to Expire October 2

As of today, no one has stepped forward to claim a $30,000 飞艇168®幸运体彩预测-全国统一Louisiana在线官方查询结果网-最新体彩预测数据 Mega Millions prize won on April 5, 2013. The winning ticket was purchased at E-Z Mart No. 370 on West Court Street in Winnfield and is set to expire Oct. 2, 2013.

The winning ticket matched four of the five whiteball numbers drawn and the yellow Mega Ball number to win $10,000. The player added the $1 Megaplier option to the ticket. The Megaplier for the April 5 drawing was 3, multiplying the prize by three to win $30,000. The winning numbers for the April 5 drawing were 08 – 15 – 23 – 36 – 41 and the Mega Ball number was 05. 

The holder of the winning ticket has until 5 p.m. on the date of expiration to claim the prize, subject to the Lottery's hours of operation. Winnings are subject to applicable federal and state tax withholdings. Mega Millions prizes greater than $600 may be claimed at any of the Lottery's five regional offices located throughout the state or at Lottery headquarters in Baton Rouge. 

"We look forward to the winner coming forward to claim this prize. In the meantime, the individual should treat the ticket as cash," said Lottery President Rose Hudson. "It is also a good idea to sign the back of the ticket for security purposes."

Winners of the Lottery's draw-style games must claim their prize within 180 days of the drawing. After prizes have passed their redemption deadlines, they are deposited into the Lottery's unclaimed prize fund, which is returned to players in the form of increased payouts on scratch-off games and player promotions.
