It's hard to believe, but there are billions of unclaimed funds sitting in the coffers of New York State. From The Downtown Express in Lower Manhattan:

For anyone whose tax refund has fallen a little short of their expectations, State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli has another way of getting cash: an online database of unclaimed funds. New Yorkers are owed billions of dollars in everything from uncashed checks to estate proceeds, but people often don't claim the money because they don't know about it.

To find out if you're one of the lucky residents in the database, visit this website immediately!

Here are some of the categories of unclaimed funds:

Savings Accounts, Checking Accounts, Uncashed Checks, Telephone/Utility, Deposits, Rental Security Deposits, Wages, Insurance Benefits/Policies, Safe Deposit Box, Contents, Mortgage Insurance Refunds, Stocks and Dividends, Mutual Funds, Certificates of Deposit, Trust Funds, Estate Proceeds.
