Leading
unclaimed money Internet site integrates Florida’s 2.5 million records Coral
Gables, FL
– August 3, 2001: The National Unclaimed Property Database©,
NUPD.com,
the Internet leader for reuniting unclaimed money to its rightful
owners and heirs, announces the update of 2.5 million records of unclaimed
money accounts valued at $700 million from the State of Florida. The #1
Internet resource and free search site for unclaimed money and property, NUPD.com
provides easy, centralized access to over $35 billion of unclaimed money
and property held by state and federal government agencies from across the
United States. NUPD.com,
with 1.3 million registered members, ranks as the largest Internet
resource and search site for unclaimed money and property. Visitors to NUPD.com
simply sign-up (its free) then login to begin their searches for unclaimed
money owed them, their family, neighbors, friends, their business and
others. Additional site resources such as on-line help and agency contact
information assist its members with their claim process. Statistics
show that one in eight Americans is owed unclaimed money or property such
as forgotten savings or checking accounts, safe deposit boxes, stocks and
bonds, insurance proceeds, utility deposits, gift certificates, cashiers
checks, payroll checks, undeliverable IRS tax refunds, HUD/FHA insurance
refunds, pension benefits and more. When
financial accounts lay dormant for a specified period of time, and the
owner cannot be located, they are considered abandoned and turned over to
the appropriate state agency for safekeeping until the rightful owner or
heir comes forward to claim them. “The
impact the Internet, and specifically NUPD.com,
has had on the public education and awareness of unclaimed property has
been tremendous. Never before has the public had such ease of access to
millions of unclaimed money and property accounts,” said Kim Usiak,
President and CEO of Knowledge In Motion Inc. “With over $3 billion of
dormant financial accounts reported annually, and one in eight Americans
owed unclaimed money, NUPD.com is truly
an invaluable resource for everyone.” About
