It’s time to check those old lottery tickets because you could be a multi-millionaire.

Loto-Québec is seeking out the winners of four substantial prizes who still have yet to come forward.

“One multi-millionaire and three millionaires have yet to claim their prize,” the provincial Crown corporation said in a statement.

The $2-million Quebec 49 ticket was purchased last August in the Quebec City area. The prizewinner has until Aug. 14 to fetch the winnings.

Three other people are each sitting on $1 million and don’t know it. One winner bought a Lotto Max ticket in the Outaouais region last June.
