Hey, what about "finders keepers, losers weepers"!
The day before yesterday, motorcycle courier Ünal Coşkun brought
150,000 Euros from Beylikdüzü to Kapılıçarşı (Istanbul's "Covered
Market") but the deal was canceled so he headed back to Beylikdüzü
with the money in his coat. At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon as he
rode along the coast road in Zeytinburnu the wind picked up, his
coat flew open and the Euros flew away, too. (!)
Passing cars trampled on the money, which was bound in packs with
rubber bands, allowing the cash to fly away with the wind. Coşkun
tried to stop traffic and collect the scattered money and some drivers
stopped and helped him. Coşkun also took a video of the scene to
document any thefts. Ultimately, 85,000 Euros, worth 1,700,000 TL
were lost.
"Next time, if there is one, I'll keep my jacket zipped."
Coşkun filed a criminal complaint against those who took the
scattered Euros rather than return them to him. He also alerted foreign
exchange bureaus concerning the serial numbers of the Euros. Coşkun
lamented that "I hope the missing money will be found. I make just
8,000 TL (($429)) per month, my wife is pregnant and I'm in a tough
spot if the missing 85,000 Euros aren't found."
