NORTH Vancouver RCMP are searching for the rightful owners of a large amount of cash that was found at Maplewood Farm located at 405 Seymour River in September.
The cash was recently turned in to police after park employees were unsuccessful in finding the rightful owner. The cash contains Canadian and foreign currencies.
“We hope the rightful owner of the money will contact us,” said Constable Mansoor Sahak. “The owner will need to tell us the amount of money that was lost, the denominations, the currencies, and a reasonable explanation of the date, and where precisely in the park they would have lost it.”
He added: “And no, telling us the bills are rectangular, or that they could be in denominations of either $5, $10, $20, $50 or $100 won’t cut it!”
RCMP are also asking people to refrain from contacting them and guessing in hopes of getting the cash.
“Last time we did this with valuables that were turned in to us, quite a few people contacted us claiming the valuables were theirs when they actually weren’t,” said Sahak. “Please don’t call in and guess. That would be unkind. It could also be fraud, which is a crime.”
The person who lost the money is asked to contact Constable Nick Giornofelice at 604-985-1311 and quote file# 2022-28932.
