Unclaimed money...?

...do those things really work? If it does, what is the best website/company to go with?

    Only if you suspect you have unclaimed money. You can't claim what never belonged to you, except in the case of a deceased relative (conditions though).

    Unless you've specifically requested information, never follow email messages referring to unclaimed funds, scammers seem to have a fondness for using this sort of bait.

    Maybe, maybe not. If you really do have unclaimed property, do the research yourself and get it back. If you go through a website/company that does it for you, they're going to get a large chunk of it - that's how they make their money.

    Each state also has an unclaimed property division. Search for (Your State) Unclaimed Property to check if you're owed anything. Unless you frequently leave money in bank accounts and don't touch them for a few years, then you're probably not owed anything.

    "those things" are probably scams. Unless you get a notice from a government office, don't respond.
