A mega millions lottery mystery has finally been solved, and now one southern California man is hundreds of thousands of dollars richer.

Bob Sehested claimed his prize Thursday after a month of confusion. He said he lost his ticket. But lucky for him, he was captured on a store surveillance camera in Camarillo.

The storeowner enlisted the media's help in tracking down the ticket holder.

Sehested said he had no idea he was the winner until he saw himself on a TV news story.

"I called Jim and said I'm the guy on the video," Sehested said.

The winning ticket is worth about $400,000 after taxes.
