Are you missing a large and very specific sum of cash that you lost in North Vancouver recently?
The money was in an envelope when it was turned over to police.
"The owner will need to tell us the amount of money that was in the envelope, the denominations, the currencies, and a reasonable explanation of when, where and how they lost it. And no, telling us the bills are rectangular, or that they’re in denominations of either $5, $10, $20, $50 or $100 won’t cut it," said DeVries.
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 ‘might’ have been theirs when they actually weren't," said DeVries. "Please don’t do that. That would be unkind. It would also be fraud, which is a crime."
The person who lost the money is asked to contact the North Vancouver RCMP at 604-985-1311 and quote file# 2020-24322.
Last June, police put out a public notice after a wallet with no identification or cards but a substantial amount of cash was found by Capilano Mall security and turned in to RCMP.
