FDJ Seeks Unclaimed EuroMillions Winner Amid Eco-Friendly Efforts

A one million euro prize goes unclaimed, and FDJ pushes for sustainable advertising practices.

The Française des Jeux (FDJ) is on the hunt for an elusive lottery winner who may be about to miss out on claiming their prize of one million euros, won during the EuroMillions draw on December 3, 2024. With the deadline to claim the winnings fast approaching on January 31, 2025, the pressure is on for the player to step forward.

According to statements from the FDJ, the winner validated their ticket—specifically EuroMillions - My Million—at a location within the Alpes-Maritimes region. Those who may think they are the lucky recipient of this coveted prize should dig out their ticket or log onto the FDJ website to verify their numbers. The winning code is AE 196 0600, and anyone who can confirm they are the holder of this ticket is urged to contact FDJ customer service at 09 69 36 60 601.

This call to action is especially significant as the clock ticks down to the midnight deadline this Friday. With other lucrative draws on the horizon, it's not just about one million euros; the upcoming EuroMillions draw promises 17 million euros, enticing even more hopeful players. Not only does Friday hold the potential for new winners, but there's also another chance for players through My Million, where another lucky draw could secure yet another one million euros.

"The winner, if recognized, can call the FDJ customer service at 09 69 36 60 601, who will connect them with the Winners Experience team," stated FDJ. The sense of urgency is palpable, with only days remaining for the player to claim their life-changing prize.

Meanwhile, the FDJ is making strides beyond just jackpots and ad campaigns; they're also engaging with environmental initiatives. Recently, the FDJ partnered with DK, known for its carbon measurement and management solutions. This collaboration aims to minimize the carbon footprint of the FDJ's advertising campaigns, marking the company's commitment to responsible advertising amid wider shifts toward eco-friendliness.

"With DK, FDJ benefits from the Total Measure offer (TV, radio, digital, press, display) to measure media plans collectively," reported DK. This approach allows FDJ to gauge the environmental impact of their media buys across various channels, aligning their professional practices with expectations from today's eco-conscious consumers.

While the winner from December remains missing, the excitement of the next EuroMillions draw showcases the enduring appeal of the lottery experience. For those dreaming of winning big, the rules remain straightforward: buy your ticket (priced at just €2.50), select your seven numbers—five from one to fifty and two additional bonus stars from one to twelve—and hope for the best. With odds of one in 139 million, it's certainly not easy, but for millions of players across Europe, it remains worth the shot.

Today's players can also play their My Million ticket, where one lucky code will yield another one million euro winner drawn later tonight. It's not just about hitting the jackpot; every ticket is steeped with dreams, excitement, and the chance of new beginnings.

The thrill of awaiting the results only adds to the atmosphere, as players tune back to check numbers after each draw—especially important since, according to the FDJ, any winnings unclaimed within sixty days will be forfeited and used for future draws. So whether you’re hoping for the grand prize or just giving My Million another shot, this is the time to check your tickets!

Winners who do recognize their code must act swiftly, as time is running out. The next EuroMillions draw is slated to take place shortly, with millions at stake!
