It is unknown how much money she scammed from the real owners of unclaimed money. However, she got away with it for so long since these owners did not know the money existed.

In a recent Good Morning America, they featured a story about unclaimed money. This story was slightly different than other unclaimed money stories most have been hearing about; one local school from a small town in New York was owed OVER $6,000! The money was not to an individual, but a school!
This was a tear-jerker, as the school recently suffered horrible flooding damaged due to recent Hurricane Irene. The school is still under repair, and the unclaimed money could not have come at a better time!

In today’s news, the state of Massachusetts has auctioned off enough unclaimed property to collect over $400,000 in funds collected from the property sold. The month-long auction raised 52% more funds than the appraised value of the unclaimed items.
This is not the first time Massachusetts has actioned off unclaimed property; it is the 7th time the state has used eBay to help sold part of the unclaimed property problem. However, this current auction proved to be a success as only 40 items were not sold.
If anyone can prove any of these sold unclaimed items are theirs, the state will give the owner the full sale price for the items.

A Chicago man, Irvin Przyborski, 61, a retired truck driver, came across an old lottery ticket worth $9 million, when looking through his tax records. Going through his tax documents, WBBM radio reports, Przyborski came across an old Illinois Lottery ticket from March of 2010. He had bought a number of tickets around that time, and went through most of them, finding no winners. One of them had apparently fallen into his tax file inadvertently.
