The surprised Ashmore man said he was at work when he learned of his $1 million win.
“Oh gosh! I don’t know what to say,” he exclaimed when an official from The Lott confirmed the bounty.
“I was at work, just going about my day, when I noticed a couple of missed calls and a text message. I thought, ‘Hmm, that’s odd, what’s going on?’.
“I logged into The Lott app and that’s when I saw $1 million! Just sitting there. I couldn’t believe it.

Despite the life-changing news, the Queenslander said he had not yet made any concrete plans for his prize.
“Wow, I have no idea, but it’s a great problem to have!” he laughed.
