Full marks for honesty: Utrecht woman returns €1,000 found in ATM

"A 10 for honesty and a clean conscience," the police in De Meern, Utrecht, said on Twitter after a woman returned money she found forgotten in an ATM.

The woman went to draw money and found 1 thousand euros still in the money slot. Instead of keeping the cash, she called the police.

"The money has since been returned to a very, very glad owner," the police said.
