I worked retail awhile back, had this exact scenario happen to me, as soon as I saw what was in the envelope, I dropped it back on the desk, showed my hands to the security camera and called a manager.  The manager did the **exact** same thing, then with both of us keeping both eyes on the envelope, we took it to our cash office, put it in a larger envelope and wrote the time, date and location in which it was found and put it in the store's safe.  Dude came back eventually.

How does one claim cash? You’d just give it to anyone who said they left behind cash in an envelope?
