The PA Unclaimed Funds Div. and the Treasurer makes an effort to inform the rightful owners of unclaimed money in PA state-run unclaimed money databases, advertising campaigns, and through letters. "Annual advertising and letter campaigns are just some of the methods Treasury employs to seek the owners of over $1 billion in unclaimed property. Treasury sends representatives to statewide public events year-round, including malls, consumer expos and fairs. Treasury also works with members of the General Assembly in helping determine if their constituents have unclaimed property", According to a statement from the Treasurer's Office of PA.
Considering the massive size of the PA unclaimed money pile though, it's clear that the state's efforts are not adequate for the large number (literally tens of thousands) of citizens owed unclaimed funds each year. If you think you or anyone you know might have unclaimed money in PA or any other state, now would be the best time to get some lost money back in your hands.

In a country where deficits and poverty are rampant, unclaimed money is an irony — but a huge reality. Be it un-banked cheques, deposits with banks, finance companies and post-offices, or investment in tax saving schemes and life insurance policies, the unclaimed sums can be significant.

Philadelphia soft pretzels, TastyKakes, cheese steaks and chocolates aren't the only great things you can find in PA. There's also the Liberty Bell, Christmas trees (Indiana County is the Christmas Tree capital of the world), steel of course, and… huge piles of money. Actually, cash from Pennsylvania unclaimed money that is. That's right – around one billion dollars in unclaimed money is with the PA State Treasurer's Office and it's just waiting to be claimed by its rightful owners.
Owners of PA unclaimed properties are residents (or former residents) of the state who have either forgotten about or lost track of their assets by moving and changing jobs. People sometimes forget to leave behind a forwarding address when they move and this ultimately results in undeliverable mail which can contain tax refund checks and the like. Escheat laws require lost financial assets be turned over to the care of the state after a number of years wherein they go unclaimed.
According to the PA State Treasurer's Office, "Each year, Treasury receives millions of dollars in unclaimed property from abandoned bank accounts, forgotten stocks, checks that have not been cashed, certificates of deposit, life insurance policies, safe deposit boxes, and other sources. Treasury maintains custody of this unclaimed property, holding assets indefinitely, until it is returned to its rightful owners." Lost assets can also come from money orders, safe-deposit box contents, expired gift certificates, uncollected or unpaid salaries and wages, and traveler's checks. In fact, more than $157 in unpaid salaries and wages were reported to have been owed by the Heinz company recently and failed to report this to the State. Under PA Unclaimed Money Law, unpaid payroll funds held by businesses have to be given to the Pennsylvania Treasurer's Office every 2 years and every five years for unclaimed assets like stock shares abandoned by shareholders and uncashed company checks. Pennsylvania State Treasurer Robert Casey stated recently, "By law, all businesses, financial institutions and legal entities must report and return all unclaimed property to the Commonwealth."
