Johnston County woman wins first $1 million top prize in new game

October 28, 2024 Posted by NC Lottery at 12:14 PM

Cynthia Moore of Smithfield tried her luck on a $10 scratch-off ticket and won the first $1 million top prize in a new game.

Moore bought her lucky $1,000,000 Cashword ticket from Rock Ridge Mart on N.C. 42 West in Wilson.

When Moore arrived at lottery headquarters Monday, she had a decision to make. She could choose to receive the prize as an annuity of $50,000 over 20 years or a lump sum of $600,000. She chose the lump sum of $600,000 and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $429,003.

The $1,000,000 Cashword game debuted in August with four top prizes of $1 million. Three $1 million prizes remain to be claimed.

Will NC Lottery add double play on Online play with the Cash 5 lottery game ?NC Lottery
Hi John, thanks for the great question! While this is not in the Lottery's immediate plans, I will let our game designers know that players are requesting this feature.

Today's Bonus Offer Digital Instants - Get a 50% Match Bonus up to $100 with a minimum $10 deposit. The fine print says "Must be played within 72 hours of qualifying deposit". What does that mean? Does all bonus cash needed to be played within 72 hours?NC Lottery
Hi Srinivasa, the disclaimer found in the pop up on 10/28 contains an error. The Online Play credits for this promo don't expire after 72 hours. Apologies for the error.
