Grok Bot found nearly $1,000 in unclaimed property

She asked Grok Bot to dig through state unclaimed property databases under her name. It found nearly $1,000 she says she had no idea was hers, then filed the claims in one evening with no finder fees. Official state sites and unclaimed.org are free. Paid finder companies take a cut and are not needed. Search every state you have lived in, and stop before signing so you can check each claim yourself.

Poster's claim, not verified: She says it found nearly $1,000. That's her account of one search, not a promise of what you'll find.

Copy this prompt

Search official unclaimed property sites for every state I've lived in: [STATES]. Use my full legal name [FULL NAME] and past addresses [ADDRESSES]. Start from unclaimed.org so you only use official state sites. List anything that looks like mine with the amount and the holding agency. Fill in the claim forms, but stop before signing or submitting so I can check them. Never use a paid finder service.

Watch out for

  • Searching and claiming on official state sites is free. Ignore companies that charge a fee to find your money.
  • Claims can take weeks, and some states ask for proof of an old address or a notarized form.
  • Do not share your Social Security number with the agent unless you are sure the form is on an official state site.
