A Mandurah man is over $518,000 richer after claiming a Saturday Lotto win.
The winner, aged in his 50s, thought something was wrong after being taken into the back room of his local newsagency following a curious message that popped up when scanning his Saturday Lotto ticket.
His fears turned to celebration after discovering the retailer from Nextra Forum West Newsagency wanted to discreetly tell him he was the winner of the division one prize.
“I went from thinking ‘oh no what have I done’ to absolute joy,” the man said.
“I never win anything, but this news now opens up so many doors.
“A new car, hey even a new haircut.”
The ticket was the second division one Saturday Lotto prize in the space of a week for Nextra Forum West Newsagency.
The winner of the $1.29 million prize is yet to come forward.
