A bemused cab driver in Argentina is the recipient of numerous donations, following an act of honesty by the man. The driver had taken two old people a short distance in the town of La Plata and after he dropped them off, realised they had left a bag inside his vehicle. A quick inspection showed the bag to contain US$32,500 but instead of keeping the cash for himself, the driver located his passengers and returned the bag and the money. Two advertising executives then set up a website, thanking the cabbie for his honesty and thousands have people have visited this, with many offering sums of money and other gifts such as a snowboarding holiday and a second-hand GPS navigation system.
