A mystery man, known only as Mr. F from Morayshire, has won £10,000 a month for one year after matching the five main numbers in the Set For Life draw on Monday 27 January.
Mr. F was one of two lucky players who scooped the second tier prize in the draw and he plans to use the winnings to make home improvements.
The lucky Morayshire local, who played a Lucky Dip via the National Lottery app, has become one of over nine million players that win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games.
Interactive winners have the opportunity to release their name, remain anonymous or like this winner, release some details through partial publicity.
Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, said:
“Amazing, what wonderful news for Mr. F who has won £10k every month for an entire year.
“What amazing home improvements he will be able to make with his extra money in the bank each month.
“Huge congratulations!”
