Every year millions of pounds worth of cash prizes are unclaimed in the UK, often due to people losing their lottery ticket, forgetting about secondary prizes or lotto players not properly checking their tickets. And one of these may well be the case for two National Lottery winners, who both could have unknowingly been sitting on a whopping £1 million since January.
The National Lottery have now announced the two unknown winners could miss out on their prize as the deadline to make a claim is only a few weeks away. According to the organisation, the pair of tickets are from the Euromillions European Millionaire Maker raffle that took place on January 21, WalesOnline reports.
The deadline to make a claim is July 20, with one of the winners reportedly coming from Doncaster, South Yorkshire and the other in the Hinckley and Bosworth district of Leicestershire.
