What is Unclaimed Property?

Unclaimed property isn't just land. It's not just forgotten cash either. Some unclaimed property is actually up for auction on eBay!

Any financial asset with no activity by its owner for an extended period of time is considered unclaimed property. This includes unclaimed wages or commissions; savings and checking accounts; stock dividends; insurance proceeds; underlying shares; customer deposits or overpayments; certificates of deposit; credit balances; refunds; money orders; and safe deposit box contents.
