How to check a letter that says we found your money
  1. 1

    Who sent it. A real notice from us says Reclaim Georgia on it and says plainly that we are a private company.

  2. 2

    The reference number. Every notice we mail carries its own reference at the top. You can type it on our site and see the record it points at.

  3. 3

    Our registration. The notice carries our Georgia registration number. You can check it against the State’s own record of registered representatives.

  4. 4

    What it never asks for. We do not ask for payment up front, and we do not ask you to mail us anything.

Compare a letter you received against our published sample on the anti-scam guide — it is generated from the same template we mail.

If you received a letter from Reclaim Georgia saying the State of Georgia is holding unclaimed property in your name, you are right to be skeptical.

The short version

Yes, the letter is real. Reclaim Georgia is registered with the Georgia Department of Revenue as a Claimant Designated Representative (CDR #202400088), the legal designation Georgia uses to authorize companies to help residents recover unclaimed property. Our LLC is registered with the Georgia Secretary of State (Control #26062343).

But you don’t have to take our word for any of that. Every claim we make about ourselves can be verified through public records that you can search yourself in about five minutes.

How to verify the letter in three steps

Step 1: Confirm Reclaim Georgia is a registered CDR

Georgia DOR keeps a register of every company authorized to act as a Claimant Designated Representative (CDR). Call the DOR Unclaimed Property Program at (855) 329-9863, or email ucp.cdr.registration@dor.ga.gov, and ask whether Reclaim Georgia LLC, CDR #202400088, is currently registered. They will confirm, typically within one business day.

You can also see our full credentials, including the DOR confirmation date and expiration date, on our credentials page.

Step 2: Confirm the LLC exists with the GA Secretary of State

Visit ecorp.sos.ga.gov/BusinessSearch and search for Reclaim Georgia LLC or control number 26062343. The state record will show the registered LLC, its formation date (March 20, 2026), and its registered agent. This is the same public-records system used to verify any business operating in Georgia.

Step 3: Verify the claim independently on the state portal

The single most important step. Go to gaclaims.unclaimedproperty.com — the official State of Georgia unclaimed property search — and search for your own name. If your property is listed there, the letter we sent you is accurate. If it isn’t, it may have been paid out or placed under review since we wrote to you, or listed under a different spelling; contact us and we will tell you what changed.

Reclaim Georgia uses the same Georgia DOR database that powers the official portal. We do not invent or fabricate claims — we identify property the state is already publishing in its public records and reach out to the rightful owner.

What a legitimate Reclaim Georgia letter looks like

Every letter we send includes:

  • Our CDR registration number (#202400088)
  • The specific property type and dollar amount the state is holding for you
  • A reference number you can enter on this site to see the record it refers to
  • Our business address and phone number
  • The solicitation notice Georgia requires, in capital letters

If any of those are missing, or if the letter is asking you to wire money, pay a fee up front, or share your Social Security number by phone, that is not from us. See our guide to spotting a scam for the warning signs.

What Reclaim Georgia will never do

  • Never ask for an up-front fee. Our 15% comes out of your check only if you actually receive money. No recovery, no fee, ever.
  • Never demand a wire transfer, gift card, or cryptocurrency. Real unclaimed-property recovery uses paper checks issued by the State of Georgia.
  • Never ask for your Social Security number by phone or text. Sensitive information is collected only through an encrypted form on our website.
  • Never pressure you to sign immediately. The state holds unclaimed property indefinitely — there is no deadline. Take whatever time you need to verify us.

What if I don’t want to use Reclaim Georgia?

That is completely fine, and we tell you so directly in the letter. The State of Georgia accepts free, direct claims from any rightful owner at gaclaims.unclaimedproperty.com. You do not need our help — we simply make the process easier for people who don’t have the time or don’t want to deal with the paperwork.

If you just want to search first to see what’s out there, our free search uses the same database the state portal does.

Still have questions?

Call us at (470) 460-8175 (we answer when we can, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm Eastern — every missed call returned) or email info@reclaimgeorgia.com (reply within one business day). We answer every legitimate verification request, and when we return your call we will never pressure you to make a decision on the spot. The point of sending you a letter is to inform you — not to push you.
