    Don't be so sanctimonious! The majority of people would give it back to the person who owns it IF they knew who that person was. However, just handing it over to a cashier who might have a friend who lost it? NO!

    The person who lost it is unknown.

    Yes, false imprisonment or wrongful detention.

    No that is the lesson. The only reason to open your mouth about it is if you plan on turning it over to the manager. If you are going to keep it, bringing it up just introduces an unknown variable into the equation.

    Similar. It would be based on state laws. They use different terms.
