A man in Selangor could hardly believe his luck after he found himself winning a massive Magnum 4D jackpot early this month.
The key factor for his win? It was all thanks to a parking spot in front of the lottery outlet.
Placed bet on a whim
According to a statement provided to WeirdKaya by Magnum 4D, the man, who had been a longtime player of 20 years, said he initially had no plans to buy a lottery ticket.
But when he stopped by Desa Aman Puri to buy a drink, he saw a parking spot in front of Magnum 4D outlet and felt a tugging at his heart to place a bet, leading him to buy an RM6 System Play ticket.
Won 2nd and 3rd prize
Two days before CNY (Feb 15), the man received news from his family that the numbers he had placed a bet on, 9637 and 5722, won him the 2nd and 3rd prize, which came to a total of RM15,365,814.
However, he had left the winning ticket at home and he had to travel back from his hometown to scan the ticket and verify his win.
Talk about luck meeting timing! This is the best Chinese New Year angpau I’ve ever received!
“I plan to use the money for a relaxed retirement and ease my house and car commitments” he beamed.
Another winner named
Meanwhile, Magnum 4D’s first ever jackpot of 2026 was won on Jan 7 by a 65-year-old retiree who walked away with RM21,883,063.
The retiree said he adopted a permutation play with the numbers 7003 and 9200, and only joins in when the jackpot climbs above RM20 million.
He added that the win was a welcomed “boost” as he enters his retirement.
Congratulations to all the winners!
