Red, does this qualify as stealing?

That said, if it were to happen to me today i would return it to the bank the next day. I have too much to lose and although i can use the money i don't need it.

What about coins in the payphone?

Who are you going to turn it in to? No different than walking thru a parking lot and finding a $20 you going to take that to the police station and turn it in?

That happened to me recently. The bank was open so I walked in and returned it.
