You surprise me..

I would think it was a ransom for someone or something and leave it.

I would leave it but I wouldn't risk my safety guarding it, would probs report it to the police once I was a safe distance away

This.

Drug Dealers DO NOT leave £2.3 million in public phone boxes in such a heavily populated area which is surrounded by housing etc.

Whoever left it there Germyle, it certainly would not have been them.

Ditto 'Ransom Money' - no kidnapper would have such a huge amount of cash placed to be picked up in such a dangerously unsafe location.

I'm only saying in case this really does ever happen to you, then you can nick it all without fear - AFTER giving me a call first to help you carry it away that is.

The problem with that though is that bank notes expire, so you would have at best 20-30 years to spend it... Imagine having £1 million+ in banknotes you know are about to expire . The temptation to try to launder it would be huge. Best bet might be some sort of darkweb antique / art deal which you could then later re-sell for "new cash" .

To answer the question of if I knew for a fact that NO ONE would know I had taken the cash, kirk... Of course I would take the cash .

BUT that sort of money in cash can only be from something very dodgy.

We had a guy a year or so ago constantly trying to use almost-expired £50 notes from the late 1980's... 30 year old notes, but they were as crisp as a brand new note . And they were genuine. Refused them though. I was like "FFS I'm not touching that! And I also do NOT want to know where you got it ".

To the emboldened.

To the bit about the guy with the £50 notes - Aren't they worth ANYTHING? Will the banks take them or are they collectable? If so I would have offered him a £5 for each one.

They were still (just about) in date so were legal currency, but it was (being frank) a VERY obvious money laundering attempt which we're really supposed to report, so it was a case of "I don't want these, I didn't see these, you didn't try to pay with these, take them far away!"
