Terms of Service
Updated: June 15th, 2019
I. OVERVIEW
CashFinders.net (“web site”) is Cash Finders LLC (“company”, “our”, “us”, “we”), a registered LLC, and is subject to its participants (“user”, “users”, “you”, “your”, “yourself” “their”). By accessing and using cashfinders.net, or otherwise availing yourself of the services and information offered through the web site, you agree to these Terms of Service in effect at the time of each such access or use.
At the behest of Cash Finders and with the cooperation of the respective participants, CashFinders.net provides an initial search inquiry located at the top of the web site’s homepage. Voluntary completion of the search form allows for Cash Finders to use the information entered by users to search for their missing money. If the user is indeed subject to missing money, the user is notified by Cash Finders through the contact information the user has provided on the next steps required to claim the lost funds.
II. TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1.Successive agreements
Completion of the initial survey form on the top home page is the beginning of our correspondence. If when you complete the survey, we find missing money in your name, you will be emailed with the option to continue an extenuated search. Should you decide that you want Cash Finders to continue finding your missing money, a written agreement would be entered in to and you will need to provide physical documents verifying your identity (e.g. driver’s license, birth certificate, proof of address, any supporting documents etc.) to rightfully claim your lost funds. Missing money can be missing in trust funds, court funds, tax returns, dividends, estate proceeds, insurance benefits/policies, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, telephone/utility/security deposits, bank accounts – savings, checking and CDs, the list continues.
2. Fees
CashFinders.net is a no charge website. Users are allowed to voluntary complete the inquiry form located on the top home page free of charge and submission of the inquiry form grants us permission to conduct a search for your missing money. Cash Finders does not charge any up-front finding fees upon the initial survey, signing of written agreement, or during the process of corresponding with those that are holding your missing money. Users may be subject to a notary fee upon signing our written agreement which is meant to protect both parties in the claiming of lost funds. In the event, that a successful claim is processed, and a check is issued in your name, no more than 15% of the funds will be allocated to us for our services. Payment of the allocated funds will be due upon receiving the missing funds. If, for instance, you would like to use the missing funds as payment, you agree to open a bank account in escrow by which when the funds clear, the percentage agreed upon prior will be withdrawn by Cash Finders, with the remaining balance withdrawn by you, thus closing the account from further use.
3. Guarantees
Cash Finders does not guarantee that you have missing money. Cash Finders provides users the ability to allow us to search on your behalf for missing money, should there be any money missing. In the event, a search is conducted, and missing money is suspected to be in your name, Cash Finders will contact you via the contact information which you provided on the next steps to claiming your money. Cash Finders does not guarantee that claiming your money will indeed be successful. As users, you understand and accept and release legal liability thereof that Cash Finders does not make certain that you are missing money. Cash Finders does not guarantee that claiming the missing money will in fact be returned to you. In some cases, if you were found delinquent on previous owned accounts, before the missing money is returned, the delinquency may be paid with the missing money found. For example, you have missing money from IRS from 2016 owed to you, however you owe taxes for your 2017 tax filing. IRS may deduct from your missing money found from your 2016 tax filing to rectify debt on your 2017 tax filing.
4. Refusal of Our Services to a User

However, Cash Finders will not knowingly conduct correspondence and services with minors. Cash Finders will not pursue claims by which a user cannot provide physical documentation of their identity. In the event, that participants cannot provide proof that links the participant to their missing money, whereby it is determined that such documentation is necessary during the process of retrieving a participant’s missing funds, Cash Finders may be unable to pursue the missing funds and our written contract may be found null and void. Cash Finders will not pursue claims that require the use of a probate attorney.
5. Timeline for Receiving Missing Funds
If Cash Finders finds that you have missing money waiting to be claimed, from the time an application for such funds is made, Cash Finders does not guarantee any specific timeline. Your missing funds can take anywhere from a few days, few months, or few years to be retrieved. The timeline in receiving your funds is affected by how soon you can provide specific documentation necessary for retrieval of your claim.
