The Australian woman, who has been trying to win the lottery for the past 10 years, continuously snubbed phone calls informing her that she had won the jackpot.

She had purchased the winning ticket on February 25 but confessed that she had forgotten to check whether she had won the cash prize.

The woman told UPI News: "I received some phone calls and emails straight after the draw, but I didn’t recognize the phone number or email, so I didn’t answer or take any notice! I said to myself, ‘It’s definitely a scam.’'

The unnamed women dismissed the calls for several days before deciding to check on the lottery's website.

She revealed: “I ignored the phone calls and emails for a few days, and then, eventually, I decided to log in to my online The Lott account. It all started to make sense when I discovered I’d won.”

The woman has said that she’s still thinking about what to do with her prize money.
