The State Treasury Department is warning of a scam that targets potential unclaimed property owners. The agency says it never reaches out to people about any of its programs, including unclaimed property, via unsolicited text messages.
There is about $4 billion in unclaimed property held by the department, and about one in ten Pennsylvanians is owed some of it. You can search an online database at patreasury.gov/unclaimed-property to see if you have property waiting and start the claim process.
