Discovered Money

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

There is only one official government portal for finding unclaimed funds, MissingMoney.com. Virtually all other entities purporting to provide this service are some kind of scam (as stated in the Washington Post article cited in MissingMoney.com). This is evident in comparing the available sources. Discovered Money has for its sources a half dozen "testimonials" hosted on its own website, links to its own Twitter, Facebook, and Youtube accounts, a dead link, and a passing mention in a minor local newspaper. bd2412 T 14:07, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete WP:ADVERT tone doing what state and federal agencies do for free, and with much less legwork.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 01:07, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - I was unable to find reference to this organisation in reliable, third party sources and I think it fails WP:GNG. The testimonials are all eight years old and similarly worded and I view the organisation with suspicion. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:43, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
