Yeah I'm with you on this one. They shouldn't be fined or jailed (unless they did illegal things with it) but they damn well shouldn't expect to keep any of it. If people can ask the bank what's going on when they are unexpectedly missing money, they can ask just the same when they sudden gain unexpected money... It's everybody's fault imo. Keeping it is actually illegal under the law. There is a thing under the law called theft by finding and I believe that is what this falls under. In effect, they chanced upon a large sum of money and did not follow the legal steps to keep it for themselves, which includes reporting it to the bank and the police. This has happened in the favor of the account holder in the past when they *did* properly inform the bank and the bank took too long to act to recover the money. --- Que sera, sera. Whatever happens, happens. ...and he was never heard from again. <cite>aDirtyShisno posted [p:927237710] in Trailer Tr...
