[WSBARP] Off Topic Question

[Jane Bitz]

There is a ton of information requested if it is for unclaimed property that has been deposited with the Secretary of State. I've had to do claims through the Washington Unclaimed Property process that included sending all of the identifying information that you listed below.

Jane.

Sounds like a scam to me.  Probably start by a Google search and if no information, call the State of CA directly.

LIstmates:

Client is an heir to a person who joined some type of club.  The State of California has sent notice of settlement of a lawsuit indicating client may receive several thousand dollars.  However, the letter indicates client must send in copy of her social security card, driver's license, and other documents.  It seems odd a person would have to send in the SS card and the driver's license should prove their identity.  Have any of you dealt with this before?
