Two lucky Australians became overnight millionaires after this week’s $50million Powerball but at least one has not registered their details, meaning they have yet to receive it.
The winning numbers for Powerball draw 1534 on Thursday were 11, 21, 15, 28, 10, 20 and 24. The all-important Powerball number was 20.
The Lott revealed that there were two winners of the $50million jackpot, from Western Australia and Northern Territory.Â
It means the pair will split the life-changing money, taking home $25million each.
While the WA winner remains anonymous, The Lott is hunting for the NT winner and urged everyone to check their ticket and come forward.
The prize is believed to be the biggest individual lottery win to land in the Northern Territory.Â
The winning NT entry was sold at The Lucky Charm Alice Springs, Shop 3-5 Coles Complex, 45 Railway Terrace, Alice Springs.
If the Alice Springs winner had been part of The Lott Members Club and registered their ticket to a player card or online account, they would have already been alerted to their good fortune.

The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart said he couldn’t wait for Australia’s newest multi-millionaires to discover the life-changing news.
‘Just imagine how $25million might change your life and the lives of your nearest and dearest,’ he said.
‘There are 25 million reasons why players who had an entry in this week’s Powerball draw should check their tickets.
‘While our friends at Lotterywest will be keen to speak to the Western Australian winner, we are equally eager to unite the Alice Springs winner with their prize.
‘If you discover you’re holding the division one winning Northern Territory entry, hold on tight to that ticket and phone 131 868 as soon as possible so that we can start the prize claim process.’
In addition to the two $25 million winners, there were 1,531,608 winners across divisions two to nine of the Powerball draw.
This includes seven division two winners who each took home $121,536.10.Â
