| Poll: What would you do if you found a wallet with $50 + IDs?
In light of me having dropped my wallet outside my house while getting out of my car... and having it disappear when I ran back 20 minutes later....
I've become really curious as to what the members of this forum would HONESTLY do if they came across someones wallet.
You can respond here, or answer the poll link anonymously HERE: http://www.acepolls.com/polls/887978...rivers-license
(Revscene apparently doesn't allow polls anymore so I provided a link to an outside polling site)
___
Update: Wallet was returned by neighbor, gave him 20 bucks for his good deed.

Prolly call them if I found some sort of number, or name for Facebook, etc. if there wasn't an address in there somewhere.

doesn't matter how much money in there. I would never take the risk keeping a lost wallet. http://www.capemaycountyherald.com/a...g-found-wallet Quote:

my family went out for dinner one night, and as we were walking back to the car we found a shitload of cards and 200$ cash. went to the owners house to try and drop it off but she wasn't home. found some cops in a local cafe and we just gave it to them. a day later, the lady called back and said thanks.

I will say I would return it all, but hope he gives the $50 to me as a reward. |

I once drove from PoCo to Chinatown to return a guys wallet and +/- $40. IIRC he dropped it while getting on a bus after work.

Yeah, definitely return the wallet in its entirety. However, a lot of petty people out there who would take stuff worth a lot less. =(

exact same thing happened to me before.
$50 in wallet with my ID's.
Ended up getting a letter in the mail from police telling me to pick up something of my possession about 2-3 days after.
Got my wallet back from the police station by DTES with the cards shuffled around inside and money missing.
Better then losing all my ID and having to replace them all.

I'd return it all.
Hate to think that honestly is no longer a trait found in a human being even though people today are the cesspool of shit that make up society. There can't possibly be a good reason not to return another person's belongings.

I'd take the money.
Then I would mail the wallet to the address on the ID. Or I would drop it in the person's mailbox

I'd return the wallet to the owner. I don't like to take things that aren't rightfully mine. Plus I feel good. |
