Call (470) 613-4627Everything in this guide is publicly verifiable. We’ll tell you exactly what to look for — and where to check.
If a letter, email, or phone call trips any one of these, stop and verify before you share anything.
Legitimate recovery services publish a working phone number, a physical business address, and an email. If the only way to reach a company is a Gmail address or a web form, walk away. Real businesses have to be findable — it is how the state, courts, and the press reach them.
Georgia law forbids a registered Claimant Designated Representative from charging an upfront fee for recovering unclaimed property. Full stop. If someone demands a filing fee, a "processing fee," or a retainer before they have recovered a dollar for you, that is illegal under O.C.G.A. §44-12-224. Hang up.
Georgia law permits no more than 30% in recovery fees (O.C.G.A. §44-12-224). Anyone quoting 40%, 50%, or a “finder’s fee that depends on how much we recover” is either unregistered or ignoring the statute. On a recovery-fee arrangement you keep at least 70% — that is not a courtesy, it is the law. (Our own fee is 10%, a third of that cap.)What about cash offers? A registered CDR may separately offer to buya claim outright under state Form UP-CDR4 — that is a purchase, not a recovery fee, so the 30% fee cap doesn’t apply to it. It is always optional: you can decline any cash offer, and you must be told you can file free with the State for the full amount. Reclaim Georgia’s cash offers work exactly this way.
Unclaimed property in Georgia has no filing deadline. The state holds it indefinitely on your behalf. Any letter, email, or phone call that says "you have 48 hours" or "this offer expires tonight" is manufacturing urgency to rush you into signing. A legitimate representative will still be there next week.
Every registered Claimant Designated Representative in Georgia is required to disclose that you can file directly with the Georgia Department of Revenue at no cost. If a company hides that fact — or worse, pretends you need them — they are breaking the rules of their own registration. A real service tells you the free option first and then explains what they actually do to earn their fee.
Four steps. Nothing confidential. Anyone claiming to be legitimate can pass all four in under fifteen minutes.
Every licensed recovery service in Georgia is registered with the state Department of Revenue as a Claimant Designated Representative and has a registration on file. Ours is published on our credentials page. If a company cannot tell you theirs in one sentence, that alone tells you everything.
The GA DOR Unclaimed Property Program answers the phone at (855) 329-9863. Ask whether the company that contacted you is on the official CDR list. They will tell you. They have no reason to lie, and they have every reason to keep that list accurate.
Every legitimate Georgia business is registered with the Secretary of State Corporations Division. Search the company name at ecorp.sos.ga.gov. You should see a live business record with a control number, a registered agent, and an active status. Reclaim Georgia LLC, Control # 26062343, appears there.
The Department of Revenue keeps a list of every active Claimant Designated Representative. If you do not see the list published on the DOR website, you can request it under Georgia’s Open Records Act, or ask the program officer on the phone to read off whether a specific company is on it. A real CDR will be on that list. A scam will not.
