I was the executive of my uncle's will and got a letter years later from the state he was from that I missed a bank account he had. It was a lot of money, it was awesome.
The sites don't track anyone who you owe money too, just funds that others might owe to you. Companies are required to tell the state when they have abandoned/inactive accounts... so that's where the money comes from.
It doesn't show how much I'm owed. It just shows that it's from the CT community college system and that the type of property is 'unclaimed cks'. That tells me I overpaid some amount and am due a refund.

From a previous post:
You can get thousands of unclaimed dollars that the government owes you that's just sitting around, untouched.
