Just found in the road

[masterk]

A 1gb Sandisk Mini SD card (and another slightly larger grubby memory card), a little grubby but cleaned up now and the pins seem fine. Checking on the web it seems the same model costs £46.75.

Is it worth giving it to the police? It was there this morning and i only just picked it up, what uses these tiny cards?

Also, would it be wrong of me to look whats on it?

Sift off any pictures of the blokes missus they stick on ebay

Its good to do your bit

Look on them, if there's any personal info, contact the owner. If it's pics, post them here.

And then hand them in to the OB, you may get them if no one claimes them.

Find out who this person is and do some identity fraud. Steal his money and house. Bury his kids in the garden.

What about his dog?

Digital camera's are quite popular uses for them, could have been a photographer out this morning and on his walk back dropped it??!

I am just speculating!

What about his dog?

Bugger his dog.

Bugger his dog.

Thats a last resort for me really.

Bugger his dog.

What, literally?

I would be inclined to say if there is nothing that would identify the owner on it just to keep them. Certainly if I lost a SD card I wouldn't go to the police to see if it's been handed in.

Certainly have a look on it to see if it has any pictures or could even have someone's uni work on it or something else important.

You can't not have a peak inside , as mention'd before there maybie clues to the owner on them.

Whatever fits with the humourous theme of this thread

This year, when I got my new digital camera, I got a 16mb card with it. So I stuck the card in a 'pocket' in the camera case, and used a 256mb xD card.

When snapping some photos, I somehow lost that 16mb card. Okay, it was only 16mb, but I was still peeved. I don't think it had any photos on anyway. It could have been handy as a spare, though.

 

[rG-tom]

definitely keep it, as has been said the owner wont go to the police to look for it. look if there are any details on it, if not, enjoy

PS i need one for my old phone to use tomtom *hint hint*

Tom.

Keeping it is theft! Not that you'd ever be found out but how could you sleep at night eh!?

 

[vodkacokebloke]

the legal term used is theft by finding, but its almost never bothered with for les than 500quid.

Tbh, unless you caqn find out the owner yourself, the police wont be too impressed with the time&paperwork youll be creating for them. They can hardly tell you off for it, but in this day and age when they dont even come out for a stolen car or a shoplifter in some cases, i cant see them ever being interested.

 

[Hamish]

I doubt a mini SD is out of a camera, its probably from a mobile phone.

 

[MarkST]

but how could you sleep at night eh!?

Horlicks!

See what is on the card, then, if you have no use for it, give it to someone.

Dude, they won't go to the police looking for it.
Check it for info, if possible ring them/send it to them, if not, whack a poster up on a lamp post outside your house, they will claim it if they regually go that way, if not, how the hell would they ever get it back?
If they don't claim it after a month, eBay it or sell it, and give the money you sell it for to charity.
Ok?
