A lottery ticket holder in South Carolina has scooped the largest jackpot in US history.
Mega Millions confirmed there was one winner for the whopping $USD1.6bn prize.
The jackpot numbers were: 28, 70, 5, 62, 65, with a Mega Ball of 5.
The odds of choosing those numbers were said to be one in more than 300 million.
People had been lining up at service stations and stores nationwide for a chance to win the huge prize.
Tickets for the Mega Millions draw are sold in 44 US states, the District of Columbia and the US Virgin Islands and there had not been a top prize winner since July.
But who that lucky winner is may remain a mystery to the public.
