A Louisville woman was apparently left in shock after she scrolled through her emails and learned she had won a $1 million prize from the Kentucky Lottery.

The winner, who reportedly wishes to remain anonymous, purchased a Powerball ticket on May 31 through the Kentucky Lottery's website, the Kentucky Lottery revealed in a recent press release.

"I've played for years," she told lottery officials.

The Jefferson County resident was at work reading through her inbox when she opened an email from the Kentucky Lottery. The message notified her that she was the winner of a $1 million prize, the press release said.

"I literally was like, ‘No way,’" she said. "I am just floored."

The winner reportedly asked her husband if he was sitting down before announcing that she won the big prize. At first, the winner's husband wasn't convinced the email was real, according to lottery officials.

After investigating whether the email was a scam, the couple "felt confident" that the $1 million win was legitimate, the Kentucky Lottery wrote.
