The Austin resident becomes a millionaire when buying Powerball

Austin, Texas – a resident of Austin is the latest Texas Millionaire after winning the lottery at the beginning of this month.

According to Texas Lottery, the lucky winner bought a Powerball Powerball ticket of 1 million US dollars at an Exxon at the Dry Creek Drive in the northwest of Austin. The ticket was selected in a draw on March 8.

Although they did not match the Red Powerball number, the anonymous winner chose the other five numbers according to Texas Lottery: 2-4-16-23-63.

Powerball drawings take place on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays weekly at 10:12 p.m.

The latest profit is made less than two months after a lottery textas of 83.5 million US dollars with extra! The ticket was bought in a retail store in North Austin, which led to an investigation of the courier systems of the state third -party provider. These systems include websites or apps that buy lottery tickets directly from retailers for their customers.

Several Texas managers, including governor Greg Abbott, questioned the legitimacy of the system after the Austin ticket had been bought by Draftkings via the Jackpocket app.

On February 24, Abbott asked the Texas Rangers to examine two drawings, including the profit of almost 84 million US dollars in Austin. On the same day, the Texas Lottery Commission explained that courier services from third -party providers were no longer permitted in the state.

The Attorney General of Texas, Ken Paxton, also examined third -party systems when he initiated an investigation of several “suspicious and possibly illegal” victories.

Before the controversy, a Scratch ticket of 1 million US dollars was bought in Texas Lottery in February.
