The lottery jackpot-hitter only has a few more days until the deadline to claim the dough expires.

The winner purchased the lucky ticket at the popular chain Meraux Food Store.
The exact location was at 2004 Paris Road, Chalmette, LA 70043.
The lucky winner’s prize level was listed at Match 4 plus Powerball.
But the last day to claim the jackpot is June 14.
That gives the anonymous winner just under two weeks to claim their incredible cash prize.
But the winner has already made a shockingly consequential decision which has meant they have lost a huge chunk of their winnings.
The player did not play Powerplay.
This would have doubled the lucky punter’s already humongous winnings.
The website for Powerball also contains a long list of separate winners who are also yet to claim their money.
Another ticket bought in Colorado is also yet to be claimed – and it pays out a massive $2million.
The ticket was also bought on December 16 last year.
It was purchased at a SAFEWAY FUEL MINI C-2612.
And its prize level is categorised as Match 5 (with Power Play).
The winner for this jackpot also has just 13 days to claim their colossal prize.
It comes after lottery officials issued a warning for a behemoth $1.1million ticket that has not been cashed yet – and it’s a record setter.
The ticket is the largest rolling jackpot sold in its state, but if the holder doesn’t come forward, it will all be for nothing.
A lottery rollover is an extraordinary thing, because it means the jackpot keeps getting bigger and bigger.
A normal prize suddenly turns into millions, but if the person doesn’t come forward at the right time, it’ll be a waste.
The jackpot in the South Carolina Education Lottery was rolled over a staggering 44 times to reach its current status.
WIS reports that this is now the largest rollover lottery prize in the state’s history.
