Floridians,

We are nearly four months away from the beginning of Hurricane Season, and while it may seem a bit early to be issuing warnings, it is never too early to get prepared. I encourage everyone to be proactive and go ahead and have your Hurricane plan ready and in place. You will save yourself a lot of stress if you put together your emergency kit and evacuation plan together now, and not when a storm is heading our way. For disaster planning tips and resources, including our Emergency Financial Preparedness Toolkit, visit PrepareFL.com today!

I would like to take this opportunity to highlight our Fraud Free Florida initiative, a website that is designed to better coordinate collective investigation efforts and to protect Florida's large population from fraud and scams. If you report fraud that leads to an arrest and conviction, you could be eligible for a substantial Florida Fraud Fighter Reward of up to $25,000! If you or a loved one believes they have fallen victim to insurance fraud, call our Insurance Fraud Hotline at 1-800-378-0445 or report it online at FraudFreeFlorida.com

Lastly, I would just like to remind everyone to take this opportunity to search for some Unclaimed Property! It's estimated that one in five Floridians has unclaimed property just waiting to be claimed, with an average claim of $825. You can search for you, your loved ones, and even your business by visiting FLTreasureHunt.gov. Don't delay - start your treasure hunt today! 

Sincerely,

Patronis' Signature

Jimmy Patronis
Chief Financial Officer
State of Florida
