    You should say exactly where the ATM machine was, what day, what time, etc....

    Did you inform the bank?

    They should be able to help you track the owner.

    i did informed the bank, but was told to give the money to police station.
    i am not happy today when the police called and told me they could not find the rightful owner and money will be passed on to mtr. only, if the owner claim the money back, then it wont go to mtr...
    thus, a desperate attempt to find him through geoexpat.

    People - please read the thread before replying!

    The OP found cash at an ATM at an MTR station.
    She couldn't find the person immediately, so she took the cash to the police station, made a report and left the cash with the police.
    The ATM owner has attempted to contact the person through the bank issuing the card used but with no reply.
    If no claimant is found then because the money was found on private property it will be given to the owner of that property.

    (If money is found in a public place such as on a street then if a claimant is not found the money is returned to the finder.)

    This sounds different to the police policy I was told when I turned in an expensive piece of jewelry I found. They told me if the item isn't claimed in x-days they would inform me to claim it.

    I asked if they had a donation program or something and they said no, and that it will just go into the unclaimed storage. (?)


    edit: just read pdlm's post. I found it at a business, not on the street.
