The state unclaimed property office says the following about New York Unclaimed Money:

For your protection, banks, insurance companies, utilities, investment companies and many other businesses are required by State law to surrender inactive accounts to the State.

If you can prove you are entitled to the money, we will gladly return it to you, at any time, without charge.
