Unclaimed Property and Unclaimed Money

Millions of dollars in property, merchandise and cash goes unclaimed each year. These funds often lay quietly, waiting for the rightful owners to emerge from the shadows and stake their claims.

Sometimes, they never show -- Separated because of changes in address, jobs or one of life’s many other myriad turns. This money cannot be spent or collected by anyone other than the owner or his or her next of kin.

And that person could be you!
