Dateline MSNBC.com Unclaimed Property

Well Dateline is becoming quite the television show to watch. I really enjoy their series on how to catch a predator and now they are showing you how to grab unclaimed money which may be waiting for you. it seems many states have billions of funds just waiting to be claimed by its rightful owner. All you need to do is to claim it.

With the high cost of gas and the potential failure of the troubled banks on the FDIC troubled banks list it would be nice to get a hold of some cash that I did not know I had. Well seems like I’m out of luck as a search of the state registries for the States I’ve liven in produced no results for my name or my wife’s. So I guess I’m won’t be benefiting from the dateline story on unclaimed property.

      My Husband and I, watched your show last night. I do have company stock out there. (Hi-Shear Inc. of Torrance Ca. We could never track it down. Is there any other way to find out, other than paying these (people ! ), that we don’t know our hard earned money? You were holding a booklet in your hands. Hoe do we obtain one? Thank you, Sincerly, Mrs. Patricia Douglas

      I would like more info on how I can find if I have money out there and also for my sister. linda pederson-sura-emerson- williams-emerson. I’ve checked with the web site unclaimed cash. They say we have money out there. But they want a fee and a credit card of which we don’t have. So if you can send me in the right direction, that would be great.

      I hear about this on msnbc, but I do not use my credit cards online.Is there any
      other way to check out if there is unclaimed money out there in my name.

      I also question the fact that they want money to look for lost money you may have coming. I don’t think I do, but my sister was left a trust fund in a bank in Webster Mass., which she was to receive when she turned 21. I have called the bank and they said they never heard of her and don’t have any records. My sister pasted away on August 16, 1975 at the age of 19. I am the only family suriver. Where do I go for help on this that won’t cost me?

      I left A email on the other sight I am not for sure which one can help. I am trying to find a saving account that was set up for my son when he was very young by his grandmother She put money in it every pay day, then she died suddenly. The account was set up that he would get it when he turned 18. When he did I tryed to find it, I have tryed for a long time the last person I talked to said it whent to the state(az) and was used,so we could not get it because it was not there.It would mean a lot to him to find it he could really use it. His father (we had separated) past away he had no money,so was hard to do anything, he was creamated and is now in my sons closet till we can come up with the money, to have him burried with his father, that was on thing we wanted and my son would love to do this for him even if he wasn’t really there for my son, He has never meet his halfsister, but they have talked a lot on phone etc. We couldn’t even get her out hear for her fathers, death . I know it would mean a lot to both of them if the money, could be found,I know there grandmother would have wanted that. I know it would not be much, but for both of them It would mean a lot. There father never did anything for them. If you could please help, so we could know one way or the other instead of allways woundering. We all have changed last names since this had happend so many years ago. You are are last hope. Thank you so much for what you have done for so many people, I hope we can be one of them

      Being unemployed like many I am finding out now, I am going through fininancial dificulity. I resently had a fininancial company, N C O “, tell me that I had to give them their money now . I told them I was unemployed and they said “we need the money now. Jokingly, I said the only way I could come up with that money was to rob a bank & I said I am not going to jail for 7 years for armed robery. The man on the other end of the phone said “I don”t care what you do just get us our money”.
      I have not answered the phone since but am rather disturbed by such a suggestion. The phone no. is 800-233-1486 if you have any questions.
      I am going to do things honest or not at all! What are the greedy bill collectors going to suggest next.? Sell drugs and engage in prostitution? I hope all financial institutions have not stooped down so low!

      Sincerly,

      A concerned U. S citizen

      I have been left some German gold bearing bonds.
      germany won’t honor them, but they have been in a bank in this country since the world war. I have searched with no luck. The interest has been accumulating and is somewhere. If someone could find these I would be more than willing to pay a finders fee. If anone is interested I could supply them with more information

    35. M. J. English on May 8th, 2009 12:42 am

      I was an employee of Southern Airways in Atlanta, later it was Republic and
      now Northwest. In the 60″s and 70″s, I purchased approximately 250 shares
      of company stock via a company deduction plan. After the mergers, buy outs, etc.
      I never received any information as to what happened to the stock and if I
      would receive any stock or money in the new setup. I have had several addresses since I left Southern in 1973 or 1974 and am just curious as to what happened to my stock and if I should pursue the matter.
      Where would I go to find out?

      Michel Jackson may be a powerful pop entertainer and a rich man but what did he do to please God the Almighty. Death comes as an uninvited Guest to anyone on earth,we should be prepared to leave this earth at any moment. Had Jackson abused his life…we have to think twice about it. Now is our turn to think and act. Our God is a living God and no one prays after death, When we have time let us do it.
