Lottery players in Idaho should check their wallets and drawers for old tickets.

Someone won $10,000 from a $1,000,000 Raffle ticket bought in Nampa last fall, the Idaho Lottery said in a June 20 news release.

However, no one has come forward to claim the prize.

The lottery player will lose out on the money if they don’t claim it at the Boise office by 5:30 p.m. June 24, lottery officials said.

The winning numbers were 079535.

“Time is of the essence for the holder of the ticket to come forward and claim their $10,000 prize,” Idaho Lottery Director Jeff Anderson said in the release.

Lottery players have 180 days from the drawing date to claim prize money.

The game also has four $1,000 prizes that will expire on the same day.

These are the winning numbers for those tickets:

  • 052505

  • 139317

  • 152316

  • 216890

Nampa is about a 20-mile drive west from Boise.

Many people can gamble or play games of chance without harm. However, for some, gambling is an addiction that can ruin lives and families.

If you or a loved one shows signs of gambling addiction, you can seek help by calling the national gambling hotline at 1-800-522-4700 or visiting the National Council on Problem Gambling website.
