A mystery EuroMillions player - known only as Mr. B - has become a millionaire overnight after scooping a UK Millionaire Maker prize.
The Lanarkshire local played a Lucky Dip via the National Lottery app on May 7 and came up trumps.
Camelot’s Andy Carter told Lanarkshire Live : “Huge congratulations to Mr. B for winning this fantastic prize.
"After a few simple taps, he has become a millionaire overnight.
“We’re encouraging everyone to check their tickets online or by downloading the National Lottery app, and to buy or check their tickets in retail in line with government guidance.
"Playing online via the website or app means that your ticket is checked, and you get an email notification if you win a prize. You can also scan your retail tickets on the National Lottery app to check if you're a winner.”
Those playing any National Lottery game help to raise an average of £30m every week for National Lottery Good Causes across the UK.
Such money helps support everything from local charities making a difference where you live through to helping athletes win Olympic and Paralympic gold medals.
To date, more than £42bn has been raised and distributed to National Lottery Good Causes through more than 625,000 individual grants.
Over £1bn is being used by charities and organisations affected by the impact of the coronavirus outbreak.
