"Every U.S. state holds onto money that people are owed and haven't claimed. Including from third-parties. You just have to go to their website and look yourself up. I got $500 from a computer company I bought a laptop from once, and a few other small payments too.

Start here and don't forget to look at "Search by State." You may not have anything coming to you... but you might!"

I have no clue what is going on. I have been getting streams of spam calls on my cell phone (I'm on the do not call list, too) from all over the country. I keep setting my phone to block these calls but it's a new number each time. :shoot::help:

I have the same problem. Was auto insurance from some place in india. After the last cussing and threat of lawsuit and contacting attorney general, they stopped. Now it's the "IRS" and they won't stop because it's just a robot that calls. No one to cuss at or threaten.

I saw that too, I'm actually waiting to find out where some of my property was escheated to after a bank closed my account by accident

It definitely said $2 in the survey. I haven't gotten 20 pennies or two bucks, yet.

I did this for myself, my boyfriend, and my parents. I got back a utility deposit I forgot about (about $50), my boyfriend got back a last paycheck from a second part time job, and my parents got back some mystery money too. Definitely recommend!

I was using the hitDB Legacy version but today surprisingly I saw that my hitdb only had data of past 39 days. I've had data of around 500 odd days stored in it but now I guess its lost. Too bad :( my last .csv was taken back in July 2015. Now that's nearly a year back :( :(

Any ideas of getting things back to normal??? HALP
