Making sure the person can locate it if they do come back, by letting any permanent establishemnt nearby know about it, would be the right thing to do, but otherwise, it's simply money laying around, that someone will eventually pick up.

Yeah, I understand that , but just morally speaking....what's the difference between picking up cash that you see laying on the ground and taking a car that is just sitting there with keys in the ignition. Strictly morally speaking, what's the difference?
