SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — A malfunctioning ATM at a bank in Maine has dispensed $37,000 in cash to a man who requested $140.
South Portland police say they responded to the TD Bank branch Thursday morning after getting a call from a woman who said a man was spending an unusual amount of time at the ATM she was waiting to use. Officers found the man stuffing cash into a shopping bag.

Lady should learn to mind her own Business.
I bet she had to go to a different ATM anyway.

I would have been trying for lightening to strike twice too :laughing7:

Because the boss said yesterday not to post links from places like CNN and such...just playing by the rules.

In frankn's thread : closed threads ?????

Here's the list: Anything to do with politics or religion, as either is defined by Webster's dictionary. This includes anything to do with our government or that of any other country or state in the world, any discussion of any agency of the government that doesn't specifically deal with treasure hunting, War, the NSA, the 2nd amendment, anything found on Fox news or CNN that doesn't have to do with treasure, anything to do with any political figure that does not own a metal detector, the separation of church and state, conspiracy theories, terrorism, Religious freedoms, etc. As the dictionary defines it, "Of or pertaining to a state, it's government, or any of it's agencies".

So I guess no more news stories..at least from me, and I only posted neat informative things..but since it all came from fox....Bleh!!

Mike

Edit..I guess in hindsight..a ATM spitting out wads of cash..is finding treasure lol

that doesn't have to do with treasure

$37,000 in cash is a Treasure imo. Even if he didn't get to keep it.

the bank was most likely closed

"I was worried Till I called someone , & they got here I'd have been Shot & Robbed,
It all happened so Fast :o "

No crime was committed Yet

Of course If I got picked up at the airport , it would take a little fancier talking.

"I thought It was a Millionth Customer thing" :laughing7:
