He had 60 days to claim his winnings, until April 16.
The winner of the Loto draw on February 12 did not come forward to the Française des Jeux (FDJ).
Result: it is now too late to claim the jackpot of six million euros which was to go to him, as indicated by the site TirageGagnant.com.
The FDJ had however launched a search notice in recent days to find the lucky winner, who had validated his ticket “in the Nantes region”, in Loire-Atlantique.
In the Dordogne, the second and only other player to have won the jackpot that evening has already pocketed his prize.
Not claiming such a win is rare for the Lotto.
The last time a winner did not come forward for such a high gain dates back to 2011, when a jackpot of eight million euros was lost in Haute-Loire.
More recently, last January, a million euros were lost in Aude.
The FDJ indicates that “the lot will be put back into play in the form of promotional operations.”
