PCSO said that the lone winner plans to put her winnings into savings, and give a portion to charity.
"Ang masasabi ko lang sa mga nagsasabi na hindi totoo ang mga nanalo sa Lotto ay nagkakamali po kayo," the bettor said in a press release of PCSO.
"Kailangan niyo tumaya para malaman niyo na totoo ang lotto," the winner added.
