NEW YORK, July 23 (UPI) -- The New York Lottery is using posters of a crudely drawn stick figure in an attempt to identify the person who purchased a $7 million winning ticket.

The lottery put up posters this week in Brooklyn with the hope of catching the attention of the person who bought the winning Cash4Life ticket July 24 of last year at the Milky Way Deli.


The winner has until Friday to claim the prize, officials said.

One of the posters features a drawing of a stick figure holding a crudely drawn lottery ticket with the caption, "Is this you?" The poster identifies the hat-wearing stick figure as "a male or female who is rich but doesn't know it yet."

Another poster features only the drawing of a lottery ticket and reads, "Have you seen me?"

"We are urging players to check and double-check their tickets one last time for the chance to claim this $7 million jackpot prize," said Gardner Gurney, acting director of the Division of the Lottery.

The winning ticket bears the numbers 05 - 20 - 35 - 43 - 48 and the Cash Ball number 03.
