Have You Ever Found Money You Forgot...

[WannabeMego]

...you had...

My Wife's Uncle passed unexpectedly several weeks ago and legal matters tend to be in disarray...

Anyway...Trying to help anyway I can, I do my typical searches for Unclaimed Funds.

Normally, I search once a month...and I've found money for my mom, my wife...but today I've found over 35 Unclaimed/Abandon Funds just for her Family alone!!!

My Family tends to know where every penny is, so I RARELY find anything for them.

Here are some simple tips on what you can do to see if you may have some funds to claim.

1st off---Go To: NAUPA and select a State you either currently or previously lived in. Including Canada!!!

This should take you to their Comptroller's Page where Unclaimed Funds get reported and held by the State for a certain period of time before it is forfeited to the State. Some States even Sell Unclaimed Property (Cars, Land, etc.) on eBay!!!

Usually just your last name is enough to get the ball rolling, but some States may require your 1st name as well (such as Hawaii).

If you're curious about other members of your Family (Moms, Dads, Brothers, Sisters, etc.) that may have passed away, in most cases you can make a claim if you're the next/closest decedent.

Most State's will inform you of what supporting documents you may need in order to receive the funds from your claim.

Give it a try...My Mother-in-Law got over $1,000 from an Insurance Policy she totally forgot about.

Good Luck...Hope Y'All find some Mad Mego Money!!!

Yeah my mother in law got an insurance settlement from her daughter that had passed away years ago from some job she had in the 70's. It ended up being like $4000. Came up in the local paper and someone noticed the name on the list and contacted her.

Yes, and trust me it was at the best time ever. I had a coat I had not worn in a year. I was getting to KB Toys really early one morning so that I could make sure the truck that arrived was unloaded ( this was around Christmas too mind ya ) and to get the schedule done for the coming week. When I went into pocket to get the store keys, I found a $50 bill. That was great because that day the truck had a lot of goodies that arrived in store.

I once found some megos I thought I had lost. Growing up our car had ashtrays in the backseat armrests that popped out on opened up into the wheel well. I pulled them out one day and there was the klingon and Captain Kirk that I'd put in there a few months before. That was a happy day!
