What is this unclaimed cash?
Unclaimed cash and property can be everything from unreturned deposits you made with a utility company or apartment complex, refunds you're owed, insurance benefits, or overpayments. It can be property found in a bygone safety deposit box.
When companies can't find you, they send the money to the NC State Treasurer's Department. All you have to do to see if you have money is search your name at NCcash.com.
You can check your family members' names and friend's names too, as well as the non-profits or businesses you’re associated with. To claim your money, you will have to put in your Social Security number.
