Whether you’re naughty or nice, money could be waiting for you underneath the Unclaimed Property tree

“Sure, there’s always a chance you’ll find no more than a lump of coal,” Attorney General Rokita said. “But every day, many Hoosiers are surprised to find their names on the list in our Unclaimed Property database. And it doesn’t even matter whether you’ve been naughty or nice because this money is already rightfully yours, anyway.”

Unclaimed property is real cash from forgotten wages, old bank accounts, safe-deposit boxes, refunds and more.

This year, Attorney General Rokita ’s Unclaimed Property team shattered its 2023 record by returning more than $86 million — with a couple weeks still left in 2025.

So, head to IndianaUnclaimed.gov or text CLAIM to 46220. It's fast, free, secure and easier than wrapping one more present.
