County of Greene issued the following announcement on Aug. 19.
As of FY 2020, there is approximately $919 million in the unclaimed property fund. You may be one of the North Carolinians who is owed money from the fund. Claim Your Cash, part of the NC Cash Program, helps reunite owners with their unclaimed property.
What is Unclaimed Property?
Unclaimed property consists of bank accounts, wages, utility deposits, insurance policy proceeds, stocks, bonds, and contents of safe deposit boxes that typically have been abandoned for one to five years. Funds become unclaimed because the company loses track of the consumer, due to an incorrect address or other missing information. By law, these funds are escheated, or turned over, to the Department of State Treasurer for safekeeping until claimed.
