A Westbury convenience store sold a $3 million winning scratch-off, just weeks after another top-prize ticket was sold elsewhere in Nassau County, lottery officials said.
BEAC 1998 LLC claimed the prize, choosing to accept a one-time lump payment of $1,334,553, according to the New York Lottery.
The Bonus Stars scratch-off was sold at Charmy Creation Super Convenience, at 129 Post Ave. in Westbury.
In August, The Ronald Stuckey Revocable Trust of Freeport won the $3 million prize for the same lottery game and also opted for the lump-sum payment. That ticket was bought from Torres Deli & Grocery, at 84A Broadway in Freeport, the New York Lottery said in a release.
The state allows lottery winners to collect their winning through business entities, including LLCs, to ensure anonymity.
There is still one $3 million top prize remaining for the Bonus Stars game, officials said.
