This Halloween season, Indiana icon Sammy Terry — the longest-running TV horror host in the world — is again partnering with the Attorney General’s Office to remind Hoosiers to search for unclaimed treats at IndianaUnclaimed.gov.
“Despite his scary reputation, Sammy is helping hardworking Hoosiers dig up treats, not tricks, this Halloween,” Attorney General Todd Rokita said. “What’s yours is yours, and it belongs with you rather than with goblins, gremlins or the government.”
Under Attorney General Rokita’s leadership, the office’s Unclaimed Property Division returned a record-breaking $81 million to hardworking Hoosiers in 2023. Hundreds of millions remain to be claimed.
Sammy Terry is featured in a digital advertising campaign calling all Hoosiers around the state to text SAMMY to 46220 and search your name for unclaimed property.
“Go, my minions, to Indianaunclaimed.gov and hunt for any unclaimed pleasant nightmares just waiting to be claimed by you,” Sammy Terry said. “Indiana Unclaimed returns well over $1 million every week to Hoosiers across the state. It’s easy, quick and free to search!”
Unclaimed property is any financial asset with no activity by its owner for an extended period of time. This can include unclaimed wages or commissions, money orders, safety deposit box contents, savings and checking accounts, refunds and overpayments.
Attorney General Rokita’s office conducts outreach efforts to locate the rightful owners or heirs. Individuals and/or businesses have 25 years to claim money once it is reported to the state.
Please contact the Attorney General’s Unclaimed Property Division at 1-866-462-5246 or updmail@atg.in.gov with any questions.
