NOT a Scam

You've no doubt seen ads claiming that you have money out there somewhere waiting for you to claim it. It could be a tax refund check you never cashed, a deposit for an apartment rental or utility you never got back or a long-forgotten bank account.

If you pay this company to find your missing money, it will probably do what you can do yourself for free: Visit MissingMoney.com.

CBS News reported this morning that this is legitimate. You enter your name and the state where you might have missing assets then a list of potential matches comes up.

Alas, it didn't locate anything for me.
