Genesee County woman wins $100,000 in Michigan Lottery’s 500X Money Maker Second Chance game – Michigan Lottery Connect

A Genesee County woman was speechless after winning $100,000 on the Michigan Lottery’s 500X Money Maker second chance game.

The 54-year-old player, who wished to remain anonymous, won $100,000 after being selected in a random drawing on May 28. She was able to enter the drawing by scanning non-winning 500X Money Maker tickets on the Michigan Lottery app.

“I scanned a lot of 500X Money Maker tickets for the drawing,” the player said. “I was speechless when I saw an email from the Michigan Lottery saying I had won $100,000. I had to call the lottery to make sure it was real because I didn’t believe it. It’s still hard to believe, but as I stood in the lottery office claiming my prize, I started to realize what I thought!”

The lucky player recently visited the lottery headquarters to claim her prize. She plans to invest her winnings.

Each non-winning 500X Money Maker ticket is eligible for a second chance to win a prize between $500 and $100,000. Players can enter by scanning their non-winning tickets using the Michigan Lottery mobile app ticket scanner by June 21, 2024. A second drawing will still be conducted. The drawing will feature:

• A winner of $100,000
• Five winners of $10,000
• Twenty winners of $1,000
• Sixty winners of $500
