Good Samaritan tracks down owner of lost wallet by sending message through 1p online bank transfers

Genius.

Finding nothing, he logged onto his online banking account and noticed four separate transfers had been made into his account.

Each were for the value of a penny, and each contained a message within the constraints of the 18 character limit.

When combined, the message read: “Hi, I found your / wallet in the road / 07XXXXXXXXX / Text or call!”
