Re: What would YOU do....
As it's illegal to keep money mistakenly paid to you then I would have returned it.. No sense having an international arrest warrant hanging over your head for the rest of your life and being unable to return to the UK..

Re: What would YOU do....
And that was my arguement, would it be worth while running with the money and hoping that the country you get to will never had an extradition treaty with the UK and facing the fact that you can never return (just about everyone gets homesick at some point in thier life)

Re: What would YOU do....
I'd own up. There's just too much to give up just purely for monetry gain.
However if I thought there was a chance that it'd never be traced...

Re: What would YOU do....
I think they were a bit mean just giving him a crate of beer as a reward.
