Two lucky South Africans are multi-millionaires and they don't even know it yet. Ithuba recently made the announcement that two players who won R20m and R30m in the last month have yet to claim the prize.
Ithuba CEO Charmaine Mabuza has encouraged the people who purchased a ticket at a pawn shop in Carltonville to check their tickets because that is where a ticket was purchased that won the R20m prize on the 29th May.
