reWhat



          When a British  16-year-old paid f95 on eBay for a
          second-hand  PlayStation 2 console  and two games,
          he wasn't  sure if it was a bargain.  But when the goods
          arrived  and he opened the box, the console was there
          but the games weren't. lnstead, there was €65,400 in
          banknotes! The boy, who has not given  his name, was
          amazed.  He told his parents, and they gave the money
          to the police, who began an investigation.  So far, they
          haven't found out who the cash belongs to or how it
          got into the box. So what happens to the money? That              r*l
          depends.  lf the police discover that the money came
          from crime,  it belongs to the government.  But if nobody
          can prove  where  it's from, the boy and his family  can
          apply to keep it!
