Mega Millions

The jackpot in the multi-state Mega Millions lottery game grew to $41 million Saturday.

None of the tickets sold for Friday's $30 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball. The next drawing will be Tuesday.

There were five second-prize winners from Friday night's drawing: 2 from California, 1 from Massachusetts, 1 from New Jersey, and 1 from New York.  Each ticket matched all five lotto numbers but not the Mega Ball number to win $250,000.

The California second prize winners will each receive $182,092 because California does not award the fixed prize amounts used by the other Mega Millions states.

Also, there were 30 third prize tickets matching 4 white balls plus the gold Mega Ball to win $10,000.  The California third prize winners will receive $12,440 each.

The winning numbers from Friday's drawing were: 16, 29, 32, 36 and 55. The Mega Ball number was 12.

The Texas Megaplier was 3.

If it keeps rolling it should hit 300+ on June 9th. That's a very big if though.

Powerball should hit 300+ with it's inflated annuity on the 7th of June.

To the winner, I have a question. I got a letter in the mail yesterday telling me that I had won 250,000 from the drawing on April 21. Was your letter titled "Global Finance Inc." in rainbow colors and did it include a check to help you get started paying for insurance, taxes, and h&s fees? I wanted to ask to make sure that the letter i got was actually real or just a scam. please comment back or email at t1nkerbelle19@mchsi.com. I would appreciate it

If you didn't enter the drawing then it is a scam.
