Kirjava Royal Hiigaran Navy	Posted - 2008.05.15 11:14:00 - [1] Need some moral advice from you, the Eve Out of Pod. Now that you have stopped laughing and/or spitting beer at your keyboard, here is my problem. While walking along the steet, yours truely spotted a wallet in the middle of the pavement. Canceling my initial impulse to bring out my salvager on it, I picked it up and looked through it. Contents - ú35 and a few bits of coinage, plus some first class stamps. I had been hoping for some ID to see whose it was if I knew them.... but alas - no. What to do now - I have in front of me an old leather wallet and ú35 - found in the middle of the street. should I do the Eve thing and claim salvage rights Haruhiists - Overloading Out of Pod discussions since 2007.

Cutter Isaacson Minmatar Hollow World Mining Corporation QUANT Hegemony	Posted - 2008.05.15 11:27:00 - [3] Yeah, take it to the cops. If nobody goes to them to retrieve it after 2 weeks (I believe) then you get to keep it. Do the right thing, you wont regret it. Originally by: Verone Sweet baby jesus and his holy mother of pwn.
ReaperOfSly Gallente Lyrus Associates	Posted - 2008.05.15 11:35:00 - [4] Question: is the warm fuzzy feeling of handing the wallet in worth 35 quid? Alternatively, apply Lebadevinski's Inequality to the set of Boromian fields, and expand out by Gregorinov's power series. The answer should then be obvious.

CCP Whisper	Posted - 2008.05.15 12:01:00 - [5] Take it to the police station and hand it in. Honesty pays off in the long run.

Blood Daemon Minmatar Republic Military School	Posted - 2008.05.15 12:04:00 - [6] I'll be the first to say, take it, keep it, enjoy it.... If you lost a wallet with ú35 in it, I seriously doubt that other person would hand it in, and if they did you wouldn't get it anyways, because you probably wouldn't go to the police station to check if it's found.. So keep the money, if there is no PROPER ID's in there, like bank cards, National Insurance cards etc, I don't see what the problem is, it would just be like finding ú35 rolling across the floor ------------------ Originally by: Treelox CCP, keep your pimp hand strong!!!!

Zarch AlDain Hematite Rose Bionic Dawn	Posted - 2008.05.15 14:41:00 - [13] In this country if you hand something into the police then after a certain time if it's not claimed you get to keep it. I don't know how it works where you are though. Finding loose money is one thing as that can't realistically be traced to its owner. A wallet is different though and it seems most people here are able to see that difference. When I was about 11 my brother and I found a wallet someone had dropped when out walking. We took it to the police and it was claimed the same day. Turned out it was a teenager who was here on holiday and that was his money he needed for the ferry fair home. He was seriously worried that he would be stuck/needing a rescue from relatives/whatever until we found it. Yes he was a muppet to lose it in the first place, but people loose things. Accidents happen. I've managed to leave a mobile phone behind in a restaurant at least twice and I'm grateful that the staff were honest and held onto it until I came back for it. Maybe karma for the wallet is being repayed. Zarch AlDain ---- My corp is recruiting. See the recruitment thread here.

By the time I got home the wallet waited for me on the desk. Just to rob you of a happy end: minus the money After that I felt entitled to keep that few hundred dollars worth mobile phone I found on the pavement a few months later.

Shadowsword COLSUP Tau Ceti Federation	Posted - 2008.05.15 15:38:00 - [17] It really depend of your own ethics. If there were identity papers in it, I'd give back at least that, since having them redone when you lost them is a real pain. now, about hte moeny, I suppose it's give it back, too, else I'd feel a bit guilty for months, but I'd still ask for a reward... ------------------------------------------

annoing Amarr MisFunk Inc. Daisho Syndicate	Posted - 2008.05.15 15:42:00 - [19] No ID in the wallet? Spend it on something nice. Its extremely unlikely that the person who lost it has gone to the police and if he/she hasnt, the police will only keep it for themselves after 6 weeks. So, my advice to you, get a few beers in, buy a dvd and have a night off Eve. That way you wont think of salvaging anything else you see lying in the street.. you silly boy you Dwi Cymraig

Jayna Keria Republic Military School	Posted - 2008.05.15 16:02:00 - [22] I love how people are saying that he should not turn it in because obviously the person wont bother recovering it... I mean if he wont bother recovering it than you'll get it back after two weeks anyway. I've found in total 4 wallets and two cheque books. 3 Wallets I got back after 2 weeks from my local police stations (one had about ú80 in) and the cheque books and the other wallet got recovered which was followed by the owners coming to my door and giving me a box of quality street or some other chocolates. Not too shabby imo as I would of spent the money on food anyway.

Who knows - maybe one of these days that 5th wallet of yours will have belonged to bill gates and he will invite you over to one of his mansions - and maybe even give you one of his mansions That's certainly a lot better then him finding out you found and used his wallet, then you'd have a lawsuit big enough to make your head explode. ____________________ "All warfare is based on deception... we must seem unable...seem inactive...and crush him " - Sun Tzu, the

My gf recently dropped her phone just as she was stepping into the train. It fell on the platform, train left, crap. Not 2 minutes later I get a call - hey we found a phone and used the last dialled number. They mailed it to me that same day and she had it back. In return these nice people got a gift basket with local food and stuff. And also - what if that wallet belonged to an old lady and the 35 was all she had left for that month? Yeah I hope you think about that one for a while. And I sincerely hope you lose something and don't get it back. Edit: And I hope you told your mom where the money came from.

Thats not how it works. If there is no identification in it then keep it. The police are not going to be able to give the wallet to the proper owners without identification any more than you are. If there is identification, try to contact the person yourself. Not a lot of people think to check police stations for lost property. If thats not possible, turn it into the police. There is no such thing as karma. I've seen enough people do immoral things and get away with it and be better off because of doing said immoral things and nothing bad has ever and will never happen to them. I'm not against doing the right thing. However, if there is no identification in the wallet there is absolutely no way it can be traced to the owner and any random person can claim its theirs. I look at things logically and if theres no identification than how are the police going to be any better at it than you? The money will probably get swiped by someone in the police station and claim it came in that way.

Yes I like to argue :P I didn't say "Don't turn it in because you won't get it back." I said don't bother if there was no identification with the wallet. To them its just a piece of leather. They'll throw it out if theres nothing in it. Now if theres credit cards and ** like that in there but no ID then yeah, turn it in. The police can track the person down by contacting the credit card company. --- My cat Putter approves of this post. Be a Ninja! You know you want too: http://www.animecubed.com/billy/?Kravick

Thats not how it works. If there is no identification in it then keep it. The police are not going to be able to give the wallet to the proper owners without identification any more than you are. If there is identification, try to contact the person yourself. Not a lot of people think to check police stations for lost property. If thats not possible, turn it into the police. There is no such thing as karma. I've seen enough people do immoral things and get away with it and be better off because of doing said immoral things and nothing bad has ever and will never happen to them. I'm not against doing the right thing. However, if there is no identification in the wallet there is absolutely no way it can be traced to the owner and any random person can claim its theirs. I look at things logically and if theres no identification than how are the police going to be any better at it than you? The money will probably get swiped by someone in the police station and claim it came in that way. They are not going to pull a CSI on some random wallet thats been turned in ether. Right because it's absolutely impossible for the person to describe the wallet he/she lost to the police. And in no way could the police ask him/her questions, like, was there anything else in the wallet and if so, what, to make sure it's really his. Yeah... Have you ever lost something and tried to claim it with the police? I have. A simple description wasn't enough for them. I had to bring in a photo of said item that had me standing in the picture as well to get them to finally let me have it back.
