I first thought the woman should have kept the money when I thought she bought the chairs. When you buy a used chair, you buy it with both disclosed and undisclosed issues in the chair that includes dog vomit, fleece, ticks, roaches, bedbugs and gold coins. Now that I found out she got them for free, I think she did the right thing by returning the money.

Is this not supposed to make headline all over the world that at least there are trust worthy people in Nigeria?...
Assuming it was a scam, BBC, Fox news and other news outlet would have carried it Just to tarnish the image of the country... Look at how this was downplayed.. even their own citizens cannot do what the grandmother did..

Grandma, your integrity is second to none..,. Thank you for showing them that some Nigerians were well raised smiley

The money might not even belong to the people who gave her the couch, and they themselves might be dishonest collecting the money like it's theirs.

A Nigerian grandma based in California, United States of America who received a couch from a stranger online for free has returned te sum of $36,000 she found inside the couch.

Vicky Umodu, a resident of San Bernardino County, said she was looking through Craigslist to purchase furniture for her new home when she found some pieces that someone was giving away for free.

“I said, ‘Maybe it’s a gimmick.’ I said, ‘Let me call them,'” Umodu said to herself

The woman later learned the family was giving away the furniture due to the recent passing of a loved one, according to the report.

“I just moved in, and I don’t have anything in my house. I was so excited, so we picked it up and brought it in,” Umodu added

Stashed underneath the cushion was $36,000 in cash, Umodu revealed to reporters.

The California woman notified the family, offering to return the sum, who then rewarded her generosity.

The family said they were not sure why so much cash was in the couch and they later discovered hundreds of dollars stashed away in their home, per the report.

That's a good example. Now they will know that Nigerians are not all that bad.

Good idea. The money might belong to some drug lord or gangsta.

Your comment reminds me of the story of a homeless man in the same USA who found hundreds of thousands of dollars on the street.

The guy took it to the police for the same reason. It might be drug money

No Nigerian 50 years and under will return such an amount. We're talking dollar here not Naira. 'Ego Igwe'.


Besides the real owner of the money is dead.
