    MUM WINS LOTTO JACKPOT JUST THREE WEEKS AFTER SHE STARTED BUYING TICKETS

    A young mother who only started playing lottery games three weeks ago has won $300,000 on the lottery.

    The mum from Sydney scooped the whopping cash prize after buying a ticket for the Lotto Strike draw.

    She had only played the lotto a few times before her $302,379 (£162,000) win and was stunned when an official confirmed the prize.

    She said: “I only started playing about three weeks ago. I’ve been playing a few games and thought I’d give Lotto Strike a go.

    “You think your chances of winning are small – you don’t expect to win!”

    The mother used a combination of birth dates and special numbers to pick her lucky numbers.

    ‘CURSED’ LOTTERY WINNERS

    Now 33, mum-of-four Callie was recently claiming Universal Credit to support her family[/caption]

    “It was too much money for someone so young,” she told Closer Magazine.

    “Even if you say your life won’t change, it does and often not for the better.”

    She later described the win as a “curse” which drove her to consider suicide.

    “I took paracetamol and sleeping tablets. Fortunately, my family found me and took me to hospital,” she said.

    Eighteen years after her win, Callie was found to be claiming Universal Credit last month after blowing her fortune. The revelation came during a trial after she was involved in a car crash while on cocaine last December.

    MAN SCOOPS £680,000 LOTTO JACKPOT BUT NEARLY MISSES OUT ON PRIZE AFTER THINKING WIN WAS ‘HOAX’ AS WIFE ‘DIDN’T BELIEVE HIM’

    The lucky winner, from Darwin, almost didn’t collect the money after being left in total disbelief when he saw all six of his numbers on the lottery app.

    “Usually, I get an email straight after the draw that tells me how close I am to winning division one,” the winner told Daily Mail Australia.

    “But this time, I didn’t, so when I woke up on Sunday morning, I logged into The Lott app and I saw I had all six numbers.

    “I thought ‘well, that’s strange’ and then I saw the prize amount, and I thought it must be some kind of hoax.”

    He was one of five winning entries in the TattsLotto draw with each person taking home £680,000 ($1,304,946.92).

    The man, who wished to remain anonymous, said it took some time for him to believe that he had scooped the massive prize.

    ‘I’M GLAD I DIDN’T GET THE £3M’

    Martyn and Kay Tott got the shock of their lives when they realised they’d won £3million back in 2001 – six months after buying the ticket.

    By the time they saw an appeal for the winner to come forward, they couldn’t find the ticket.

    After 45 agonising days of deliberating, Camelot told the devastated couple that they weren’t going to receive the cash.

    “Having that money taken away was torture,” Martyn told the Mail on Sunday.

    “For a long time I lost sight of who I was and what I believed in. But I can honestly say I’m glad I didn’t get the £3million now.

    “There is no guarantee it would have brought me happiness.”

    OBLIVIOUS WOMAN HAD NO IDEA SHE WAS CARRYING £28MILLION WINNING LOTTERY TICKET IN HER PURSE FOR WEEKS

    The 45-year-old, who has not been named, was the sole winner of the draw in Germany on June 9, Lotto Bayern said.

    She told reporters that she continued to “carelessly” carry her new found fortune around despite correctly guessing the seven fields on the lottery ticket last month.

    She has now vowed to never play the lottery again adding that she now has “more than enough for my husband, my daughter and me.”

    CALLIE ROGERS CAMPAIGNING TO RAISE LEGAL AGE LIMIT TO PLAY THE LOTTERY

    Callie is now campaigning for the government to raise the age limit for the National Lottery.

    Gambling is now more popular among children than skateboarding and campaigners believe an age limit of 16 entices young people into a habit of betting.

    Callie feels she was too young to cope with the pressure and wants to stop other kids going through the same problems she faced.

    She told the Mirror: “You are only a 16, with all that responsibility. At that age, you can get the best advice ever. But you are not in a position to listen. I was too young.

    “I suffer from such bad anxiety when I am going to meet new people. It preys on my mind, what a new partner’s family will think of me, or even new friends. I still get abuse just because of who I am.”

    ‘CURSED’ LOTTERY WINNERS WHO WON MILLIONS BUT ENDED UP PENNILESS, LEFT BY LOVED ONES AND EVEN JAILED

    Despite hitting the jackpot, countless lotto winners have suffered astonishing tragedies from the breakdown of their marriages to losing everything they own.

    And the tragedy continued earlier this week when a Euromillions winner was found dead at home.

    Margaret Loughrey scooped £27m in 2013 and became Northern Ireland’s biggest winner at the time – but she admitted that huge fortune didn’t bring her happiness.

    She said at one stage: “Money has brought me nothing but grief. It has destroyed my life.”

    SIGN MOST LIKELY TO PICK THE RIGHT WINNING NUMBERS

    The moment we’ve all been waiting for. Which sign is most likely to win the lottery? Well, it’s good news if you’re born in February or March.

    According to research from Lott and MailOnline, dreamy Pisces is the luckiest sign of the zodiac when it comes to winning the lottery.

    The data, which was based on those winning the top lottery jackpot, found that 11.6% of the winners were Pisces – meaning, on average, they were more likely to pick the golden ticket.

    Go-with the-flow Pisces will stumble upon extraordinarily lucky breaks and often find themselves effortlessly attracting most things on their wish list.

    So, Pisces, if you’re reading this maybe you should get down to the shops and buy a lottery ticket.

    THE MOST COMMON EUROMILLIONS WINNING NUMBERS REVEALED

    For EuroMillions, you pick five main numbers and two Lucky Stars, with draws taking place every Tuesdays and Fridays.

    The five most drawn main numbers since EuroMillions launched in February 2004 are 23, 44, 50, 19 and 37.

    The two most drawn Lucky Stars are 2, 3 and 8.

    The least drawn numbers are 33, 36, 22, 40, 18.

    The original Lucky Stars were 1 to 9 – of those, the least drawn are 4 and 1.

    The more recently added Lucky Stars 10, 11 and 12 have been drawn less.

    In the UK, a single entry to a EuroMillions draw costs £2.50.

    EuroMillions is different to the main Lotto draw.

      WE WON THE LOTTERY THEN GAVE WINNINGS AWAY BY MAKING PALS RICH & FLUSHING CASH DOWN THE LOO AFTER FIVE BOTTLES OF CHAMPAGNE’

      A £115million jackpot is probably enough to not just change your life, but the lives of everyone you’ve ever cared about too.

      Which is probably why Frances and Patrick Connolly decided to give over half of their winnings to 175 people.

      “We won £114,969,775.70 and we have given away more than half,” Frances said last year.

      “That’s £60million-worth of love. And the thing that makes me even happier is that every single person we gave money to has passed some of it on to other people. I can’t think of a day since winning the Lottery that I haven’t smiled.”

      EUROMILLIONS WINNER MARGARET LOUGHREY GAVE RELATIVES £1M EACH AND JUST FINISHED DREAM HOME WHEN SHE WAS FOUND DEAD AT 56

      The 56-year-old, who claimed a £27million win eight years ago, said the money had “destroyed her” before her sad death this week.

      Neighbours say Ms Loughrey – known as ‘Maggie Millions’ – had recently transformed a derelict property nicknamed ‘the barn’ into a stunning home for herself.

      Paul Gallagher told the Belfast Telegraph: “She had been living in a bungalow next to it and the barn was just finished, I believe.

      “It’s a pity she didn’t get to enjoy her new home.”

      And he said people were “shocked” by her death.

      “Margaret was well-known and did a lot of good, charitable work around the town,” he said.

      Ms Loughrey bought the winning ticket from shop SuperValu when she was walking back home from the Job Centre.

      Margaret Loughrey handed cash to friends and family after her Lottery win.

      HOW DOES THE NATIONAL LOTTERY WORK

      The National Lottery raises money to go to many ‘good causes’ and have helped give out numerous grants to those that need it most.

      On their website they state: “We retain around just 1% of revenue in profit, while around 95% of total revenue goes back to winners and society. More so, we run one of the most cost-efficient major lotteries in Europe, with around 4% of total revenue spent on operating costs.

      “To date, National Lottery players have helped to raise over £43 billion for Good Causes, with more than 635,000 individual awards made across the UK – the equivalent of more than 225 lottery grants in every UK postcode district.”
