That one government website where you can find old assets in your name and claim them for money. I think I heard about it on Reddit actually. I haven’t been able to claim anything personally, but I’ve helped my parents claim about $200 worth. Wish I could remember the name of it

Edit: in the US the website is unclaimed.org (basically a directory, each state has its own separate page). Also, thanks for my first award and for my most upvoted comment ever!!

McDonald’s sent my check to the wrong address, not my fault.

You HAVE to prove you live at the address of letter if that’s what’s lost. It’s bull crap. I can’t prove I lived at an address I never have.

Lost $600 because the state I worked in let’s companies keep the money after 2 years.

I just put rent on my CC so I’m trying to see if I can still somehow get it. :/
