Two people from Essex have struck lucky – becoming lottery millionaires without even buying a ticket, by playing online.

The two men, known to the public as Mr B and Mr C, both won the life-changing prize of £1,000,000 through national-lottery.co.uk

Mr B, who works in marketing, plans to use the money to pay off his mortgage and treat the family.

However his first purchase after learning he had won was a celebratory meal at Nandos.

On top of becoming a millionaire Mr B also won a Florida break in the EuroMillions Mega Week.

Interactive winners have the opportunity to release their name, remain anonymous or release some details like these winners.

Mr B and Mr C have now become two of more than eight million players who win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games.

Every week EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker guarantees to create four millionaires, two on Tuesday and two on Friday.
