Unclaimed Money Fraud

Looks like Delaware get the award for most abuse in abandoned property.

It was reported today that Delaware Finance employees may have stolen up to one millions dollars in unclaimed money. These guys were quite sneaky!

Here's an excerpt:

Finance Department employees may have stolen as much as $1 million in the last two years using an intricate fraud scheme targeting refunds for unclaimed stock certificates, bank accounts and other abandoned assets that revert to state ownership.

Abandoned financial property -- known as escheat -- is one of the state's largest revenue sources, bringing in about $364.9 million last year alone. Money comes from abandoned assets that have been dormant for five or more years or unredeemed retail store gift cards.

Because so many corporations are set up in Delaware a large volume of abandoned financial property held by banks and corporations legally reverts to Delaware. Read more...

Ever wonder how many states do not get caught doing this?

Even better reason to find your money before they screw yours up too!

Finding Texas Unclaimed Money

Texas unclaimed money is estimated to be in the multi millions.

Considering that many states try to hide these unclaimed funds from their citizens, it is refreshing to see local newspapers jumping into the action and helping resident find their unclaimed money in Texas.

The following story comes from the Daily Times:

The Texas Comptroller’s Office has published its annual list of unclaimed property, which includes the names of 152,000 people in the state who have at least $250 owed to them.

The Daily Times now has a copy of the list available at its front desk.

The unclaimed property could include a dormant bank account, a forgotten utility deposit, uncashed check, unclaimed investment income, securities, or family heirlooms from an abandoned safe deposit box.

Alabama Unclaimed Money

I found an interesting post about Alabama unclaimed money and how much of the property is turned over to the state. Read the story here...

They report to update their database once per year, so it's important to search often.

The Alabama site adds:

Unclaimed assets are reported in the name or Social Security number of the owner(s) along with any owner information (if available).

The Treasurer's office will periodically update this database to include new names reported and to remove those which have completed the claim process and have been returned to its rightful owner(s).

Bloomberg Rakes In Unclaimed Money

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has been reunited with almost $76,000.

$75,900 to be exact.

The story reads...

But the most important part of this story (to regular folks like you and me) is the more than $8 Billion in NY unclaimed money, belonging to 22 million. people. That number is almost unbelievable, but I suppose when you factor in that NY is a large state, and of course is home to New York city which might as well be the center of the world, it starts to make sense.

Bottom line, 22 million of you need to get a move on, tracking down your missing unclaimed funds! The government has something that belongs to YOU and you just need to learn how to locate and regain control of your New York unclaimed money, because you can bet they aren’t going to go out of their way to find you!

It's hard to believe someone so famous could be due money as easy as he is to find. Just another feather in the cap for those who claim unclaimed money offices are not working very hard to reunite Americans rightfully due.
