I was taught that Liars steel. Telling a lie is steeling. If you know something is wrong then it must be working on you telling you to do the right thing. I have to agree with everyone else who said why are you asking when you already know what is right. Unless you're just trying to make conversation here.
I was in the post office years ago and found a bank envelope full of $20 bills. Must of been $300-$400 in it. I immediately grabbed it and handed it to one of the clerks behind the counter. I knew it was the right thing to do. It's now in the clerk's hands. I went back the next day and asked the clerk if any one had claimed the money and she said yes that a lady had come in crying and explained what she did and was so thankful that an honest person turned it in. If the lady actually got her money back I don't know but I know I did the right thing.
I was also driving passed a parking lot and could see there was some paper money in a puddle of water. I quickly drove over and stopped to pick it up and it was $50.00, 2-$20's and a $10. I kept it and felt pretty good. My mom made me feel like a thief and said I should advertise in the local paper that I had found it but not state the amount. I didn't do that either because I knew everyone was going to be calling. Well what goes around comes around, turns out I've lost money too!
Some friends of ours ran an uphostery shop for years and one time he found $1,200.00 still in the bank envelope stuck in an old chair. Well to make a long story short. He returned it to the customer when they came to pick up their chair. She (the customer) couldn't believe he found it. She had hid it there over ten years before and forgot where she put it. She was in a hurry when she hid it.
What ever you do in your case it will come back to you in due time. May take 20 years but that's a long time to hang a skeleton in your closet!
