Teresa Jacobs of Pembroke took a chance on a $20 scratch-off and won a $100,000 prize.

Jacobs bought her lucky Instant Millions ticket from the Roadrunner on West Mills Street in Columbus.

She arrived at lottery headquarters Monday to claim her prize and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $71,756.

Instant Millions debuted in May with four $2 million top prizes and eight $100,000 prizes. Three $2 million prizes and three $100,000 prizes remain to be claimed.

How do we alert the NCEL of android NCEL app issues? Even as new updates are released I still have issues with scanning tickets and the app saying "Not a Winner" when the ticket is a winner. I will scan it 3 or 4 times and half the time itll say not a winner and half that it is a winner. Thats a pretty big issue and its rampant on the android app. Itll also say "Invalid Serial Number" to then go back to "Not a Winner" and then to "Winner". This needs to be addressed.NC Lottery
