"Congratulations to the mystery winner and we wish them all the best with their multi-million-dollar prize!," she added.
The lucky punter is the second South Australian to take out the Powerball division one prize this month, after another woman won £2.4million on March 9.
"I'm happy knowing I picked up a division one winning entry from them. I'll probably refurbish a lot of things – no flash holidays or anything like that.
"I've got to let it all sink in!," the man added.
The winning numbers of Draw 1401 were 4, 5, 7, 18, 19, 25 and 26 while the Powerball was 15.
This comes after a lucky man from New South Wales, Australia, became the country's biggest individual lottery winner after netting a massive £34million.
But, the multi-millionaire decided to postpone his celebrations and still went into work the next day.
A dad was also left stunned after he had been sitting on a giant £22million fortune for a week before realising he'd hit the Powerball jackpot.
