Have You Ever Found A Large Amount Of Cash And Returned It?

Found a wallet. The cash was cleaned out. Dropped it in a mail box.

Did my good deed.

Now where is this large amount of ‘reward’ monies?

On a Seattle ferry, found a wallet with 250 and it had the ID in it, gave it to the ferry security people, no thanks from anyone. This was about 1965.

Withdrew 500 from the bank, got sent 600 in the tube. Told the teller and sent back 100 she said thanks that nobody had ever done that and she would have been charged for the shortage.

Satan, are you testing us?

No I have not.

But if I did would I return it? Well it depends if the persons name and contact info is with the cash.

But if it isn't I would keep it.

Fuck turning it over to a boss that will just keep it and spend it.

Fuck turning it over to the Police that will just keep it and spend it.

One time at band camp. no not really.. This mid aged man dropped $50 and I’d pick it up and give it back in a busy street. Lucky to work out who dropped it. From his top pocket he said. That’s prob twenty years ago now. they were like wow want a reward.

Also one time at a busy train station found a $20 note and no one to give it too. As I was waiting for a train these two were asking everyone for money. Annoying and intimidating. Obvious druggies and when they got to me I go you wouldn’t believe it.. I just found $20.. and I’m not giving it to you two with slight anger eyes and a bit of a fk you.

They were scary looking but just wanted to test em. They moved on.

I was pushing carts at the local grocery store years back. I found a small zippered change purse in one of the carts in the parking lot. I grabbed the purse and went to the hot dog joint my friends worked at to see what was inside.

In the purse was a small amount of cash, 4 gold chains, and a ring but no identification of any kind. About an hour later I see an upset woman at the service desk asking if anyone had found her change purse she left in the cart. She said If it was returned there would be a cash reward given, she left her number with the service desk clerk.

I started to feel guilty as now I could put a face to the items that were in my possession. The woman left and shortly after I turned the purse over to the my coworker working the service desk. The woman came in a short time later and I did some busy work nearby to listen to the conversation. She thanked the clerk and left. No reward. Nothing.

I would've given the stuff back anyway, but damnit don't offer a reward if you had no intentions on paying one. At the time I was making a mere $4.75 and really could have used that extra cash.

Thread: Woman leaves behind $170,000 in cash in shopping cart at Arizona Walmart !

the guy was recently sentenced to prison

I went outside with the intention of going to a book store with my wife. We got in the car and drove to the corner light. As I was about to make the turn onto a normally busy street, I saw money flying in the air. I got out in the middle of the street, after stopping my car over a 20 dollar bill. I saw more flying and landing. I ran around picking up the cash. A guy across the street was cutting hedges and looked over but just kept doing his work. I ran around throwing money into our car. When I finally Counted it, it was $190.00. I have no idea why or where the money came from. It was literally raining money on a sunny day.

Yes, I have a couple times, but never a large large amount of cash. Most I ever returned was about a $1000. Depends on the circumstances and where the money is found. Found money on sidewalks and kept that.

Found smaller amounts of cash many times and always try to return it, but if I found a significant amount, like in the thousands, I would probably keep it. Way I see it, if you are in a position to casually lose thousands of pounds/dollars, then clearly I need it more than you.

Yep. 1000$ in an envelope in WalMart. Gave to manager. Was told they would lock it up, review recordings, and hopefully find who lost.

Lol!
I often wondered if it was God testing us.
