definitely woulda returned it. i think i would've wanted a small reward, but probably would've said no on the spot as to not seem like a dick...then looked back on it and ask why i didn't just take the reward.

I have to agree with the woman who did this - seeing the look on someone's face realizing that there are still honest people left in the world would have been reward enough for me.

They'd have traced it to her if she cashed it. That's a felony, I believe.

But either way, I'd return it. I have $632.19 in my bank account. Why would I need $357K?
