A Victorian woman has fainted at work after learning she’d won the lottery.
The woman, from Wodonga, had played the same numbers for years and initially ignored a phone call yesterday from The Lott when they tried to let her know about the million-dollar win.
“I’m the type of person to never answer the phone from phone numbers I don’t know, so I left it,” she said.
Then she saw a text and email telling her to check her ticket.
“I frantically brought up the winning numbers from the draw, and my entries to see if I had won anything,” the woman said.

“That’s when I went white as a ghost, and I passed out. The two people around me at work started to panic.
“I had to tell the very few around me what had happened because they thought something was wrong.”
The woman, who wants to remain anonymous, had one of the three division one winning entries the Monday & Wednesday Lotto, which was drawn on Wednesday.
The winning numbers were 4,25,16,13,9 and 27. The supplementary numbers were 42 and 29.
“I couldn’t be more grateful to have finally scored division one,” she said.
