A teen found $135,000 next to an ATM. Instead of walking away with it, he called police

Good for him. This act of honesty will
Open doors for him. Schools, colleges, job offers. Awesome!!!

Sorry, seems like a good story, but too many holes.
There are a lot of these floating around.

That is one stupid kid

A young man with integrity. It's nice to know that not everybody is an asshole.

please title this "idiot finds $135,000 ......"

how so?
hes being filmed so they know who was where and when...
its a bank.
hes being filmed and so was the worker who left the money.
if he had taken the bag of money they would have EASILY tracked him down and arrested him.

he was smart.

I’m sure he was on camera if it was right in front of the atm. But would the bank have even realized it was missing?

I’m not sure what I would have done. I found a wad of cash once as a teen and kept it, but it was only $90 crumpled up laying in a ditch. There was no wallet or anything. I only return things if I can figure out who they belong to. It’s not stealing if it’s got no owner. Every time I’ve found jewelry and tried to find the owner, I get a bunch of lying scammers trying to claim it instead.

I guess the smart thing would be to hang onto it for one year. If the bank calls up you could just give it back. He didn’t know whose it was.

I would not deposit that much money, though, without a clean trail for it.

This is similar to when someone finds a stash of gold coins on their own land and it gets taken away. I don’t consider that stealing

he had to...with all the cameras, he'd find himself charged with grand larceny and a 250k bail before he could even buy a lollipop.

When this kid is old, poor, broke and hungry he'll realize just how far honesty gets him.

This was his (probably) only opportunity to taste financial freedom.

That is now gone forever.

So someone was supposed to put the money into the machine and instead they set it down and forgot what they were doing?

Who the fuck is working for them? 10 second Tom?

Pretty smart i think. Banks have surveilance cameras. Had he taken the money, how long do you think it would be before he got a tap on the shoulder? Also, its stealing! Big fine and jail time too.

ATM camera would have caught him
