SAULT STE. MARIE—A claim is being made by someone who purchased the winning ticket in the Manitoulin District on a winning LOTTO MAX ticket worth over $80,000.
“It appears there is a prize claim being made on the $80,754 LOTTO MAX ticket,” said Tony Bitonti of Ontario Lottery and Gaming (OLG) on January 16. “A claim was submitted through our web portal, so at this point the prize claim process is just beginning and there are a few more steps to determine if the claimant is the rightful owner of the ticket.”
“This is a good indication that this prize will not go unclaimed,” said Mr. Bitonti.
As was reported earlier this month, the LOTTO MAX prize ticket worth $80,754.80 had been purchased in the Tuesday, January 17, 2023 LOTTO MAX draw. The winning selection for this prize was sold in the Manitoulin district.
“Once the prize is officially paid out, I will provide you with the winner details and a picture,” added Mr. Bitonti.
