I need advice

Nicetomeetyou22

I have just bought a second hand suitcase for my son to go away with and when I got home I checked it there is 2 dongles on it and a note from 2010 the note is ripped up I pieced it together and it's got some serious things on it what do I do ? I'm not going to watch the dongles as anything could be on them I'm bit scared really xxx

Only you know how bad the contents are.

Personally I would contact the police and ask their advice especially if a serious crime may have been committed.

The advice I have given is what I would do but others may be different, at the end of the day only you know what was in the letter therefore its your judgement.

@Binky1234 I don't know what's on the dongles I ain't watching them as anything could be on them and note mentions police names and numbers and something about safeguarding

@Binky1234 and there is date on them and the note is dated from 2010 which was over 12 years ago why would someone leave that in a suitcase and give it to a charity shop???

Hi there 

You are doing the right thing not watching the content 

As it mentions police in letter I would just hand it in to them to deal with 

Nicetomeetyou22

That's what I'm going to do @janer1967 no not watching the content as anything could be on the dongles

Have you considered returning it to the charity shop and informing them of what you have found @Nicetomeetyou22? 

Nicetomeetyou22

No @Ross_Scope I'm taking them to police station in the morning

Nicetomeetyou22

Hi @Sandy_123 yes I did I put the dongles letters in an envelope and took them to the police she asked for my name I said am staying anonymous but I gave them my number they asked where I bought the suitcase they said they will watch dongles and if they need more information they will ring me 

Sandy_123

😊 giving police officers number and  saying you prefer stay anonymous make my day ❤️ ( they can get from the system everything about you including size of shoes and where did you been in public last time).  Even, woman like me could find the most about you based on your phone number💃 too
