ORIGINAL STORY
10 News is working for you to help you find your money.
We are once again partnering with the Virginia Department of Treasury to reconnect you with your unclaimed property.
One in four Virginians have misplaced money or valuables in the Virginia Treasury Department.
The unclaimed money can come from forgotten accounts, life insurance policies, uncashed payroll or refund checks, unclaimed stocks and dividends or tangible items from safe deposit boxes, according to the Virginia Treasury Department.
During our last event in November, we found our viewers $293,976.35.
Since we’ve started this initiative in 2015, we’ve found our viewers more than $1.6 million.
The Find Your Money phone bank is scheduled again on May 19 and May 20. The number to call will be listed online and shown on 10 News when the phone lines open.
The toll-free number to call is 1-833-302-0704. If you’re having trouble getting through the phone line, you can always go here.
