The ex-girlfriend of one of the men denied £4 million Lotto win says she "laughed her head off" when Camelot refused to pay out.
Mark Goodram, 36, and Jon-Ross Watson, 31, won the incredible sum after buying a £10 scratchcard on Easter Monday.
Since then, they've been celebrating with champagne and cocktails - but they've yet to receive the cash as Camelot investigate whose debit card they used to buy the ticket, at a Waitrose in Clapham, south London.
Neither of the pair are said to hold a bank account, something which is needed to have a debit card.

Now Goodram's ex-girlfriend has said Camelot refusing to pay out is "karma" for his past bheaviour.
Shelley Birtles, 34, dated Goodram for two years and says if they did buy the ticket using a stolen card then the winnings should go to the account's owner.
She told The Sun: "When I realised Camelot weren’t giving him the money I laughed my head off. That’s karma for you.
"If the scratchcard was bought using a stolen debit card, the winnings should go to the card owner.
"And if he is granted the money, he should give it back to everyone he has stolen from."
She claims he's spent just "20 minutes" with their daughter Lexi.
Goodram has 22 convictions for 45 offences, according to reports by the Bolton News and The Sun.

Watson, also a father-of-one, said earlier this week: "The Lottery catchline is 'It Could Be You'. Well, it should be us.
"Camelot bosses are messing us around, probably because they know we’ve had a lively past and been in prison. Well, that’s too bad.
"They need to pay us what we are owed or else.
"We’re partying like the millionaires we are."
Since buying the ticket at a Waitrose in Clapham, south London, the friends have been downing champagne, cocktails, lager, vodka, Jack Daniels, cider and wine.
And Watson was on the Bolton News site's "Bolton's most wanted" list in July 2017 as he was reportedly wanted on warrant for failing to appear regarding an offence of burglary.
A Camelot spokesperson told Mirror Online yesterday: "Security procedures form a key part of the process of validating a winning ticket to ensure we maintain the integrity of The National Lottery.
"Should there be any doubt surrounding the validity of a claim, we would undertake a thorough investigation to ensure we pay out the rightful ticketholder."
