State of California handing out millions of $$$

The State of California Controllers Office is distributing long-lost money and property to owners that were lost and could not be reconciled with their $$$/Property. The searchable website allows you to search by name. Nothing for me, but I did notice checks were waiting for dead director Stanley Kubrick, dead actor Phil Hartman as well as for Brad Pitt and George Clooney- two ugly guys that could use the money.

Did someone try and get money to you and give up?

Have a gander!
