National Lottery launches appeal to find missing millionaires before deadline

Lottery players have been urged to check their tickets to see if they are one of eight potential millionaires yet to claim their prize. The mystery winners have until 11pm tonight to come forward and claim their winnings, the National Lottery said. The 100 UK Millionaires Raffle draw was held on July 26 last year, with each winner claiming £1million each. However, only 92 out of the lucky 100 picked up their prize.

A National Lottery spokesperson said: ‘Though the clock is ticking, there is still time for players to re-check their tickets and make 2014 a year to remember. We urge every player to check their bags, coat pockets, even down the back of the sofa and in their cupboards – the winning tickets could be tucked away in any of these places.’

Winners have 180 days to claim their prize after the draw is made before the money is given to charity.
