No. I think it's disgusting.

[zebo]

I might have been tempted but having a moral compass and knowing the law on fraud then I wouldn't.

[AuntPollyGrey]

Absolutely not and she should be made to repay the charity by whatever means and perhaps work for free in their shops.

[naomi24]

I wouldn't want her in any shop, APG. She's not to be trusted.

I once put a check into the bank for £300 and noticed a couple of days later I had £3000 credit. I was not going to say anything and keep the money to one side to see what happened, but a few days later my account was debited £2700 by the bank. I would have kept the money as it was a bank but would never do that to a private individual, business or Charity

[rockyracoon]

No. Absolutely not. It's a vile enough thing to do, but worse when it's a charity.

[Apc2604]

Would you be tempted if it wasn't a charity?

I wouldn't personally.

[aelmpvw]

many years ago my weekly wage of £300 went into the bank with an extra nought, no i wasn't tempted . . .

[dannyk13]

No, definitely not.

[lady-janine]

What a disgusting person. Any assets she has should be seized to help repay this money. And those she transferred money to should also be sued until they repay.

[Apc2604]

APG. I wouldn't even if we're a bank mistake.

[AuntPollyGrey]

If banks make a mistake and you benefit then its their problem -just like they say its 'your' problem if someone cleans your account out due to fraud -they don't want to know.

[Sqad]

Yes,I would be tempted, but only for ,say 15mins,then wouldn't have the courage to go through with it, charity or not.

[MallyJ]

The trouble with keeping money that has been mistakenly credited to you by a bank is that they will get that money back from other customers by dropping the interest rate or raising bank charges..It is like shoplifting, the other customers pay for the products that have been stolen. You are depriving others and that is unfair

What a lazy way to post, I'm not even interested in opening the link so I don't know.

Not for one second. However, a few years ago at a cash machine inside a co-op, the machine dispensed £50 more than I requested. Yes I kept it. The receipt shows a £10 withdrawal.

These machines are nothing to do with the shop they are situated.

It would have been fruitless handing the cash to the shop staff.
