The mystery winner was not registered to a player card, meaning lottery officials can’t inform the winner that they’ve won.
The mystery winner bought their ticket at Nambucca Heads Newsagency and took home a total prize of $2,582,582.68.
Stephen Kimber, whose newsagency sold the winning ticket, said he hopes the ticket holder checks their ticket and comes forward to claim it soon.
“My wife and I couldn’t be more excited for our little town of Nambucca to score such a massive win,” Kimber said.
“We will continue to share this excitement in our store with balloons and signage for the coming weeks.
“We really hope our mystery winner checks their ticket soon and we wish them well as they enjoy their prize.”
