Unclaimed Property Goes Primetime (or, at least Daytime)

Yesterday, Good Morning America followed John Purdue, the West Virginia State Treasurer, as he presented a check for nearly $15,000 to one West Virgina resident.  The property at issue was a CD belonging to the claimant's mother, who passed away last year.  The full story is available on the Good Morning America website, and there is an accompanying article that has stories from GMA readers/viewers who have claimed money, as well as a list of tips for finding unclaimed property.
