Dishonest workers take goods and money Ripoff

Education & Science

My grandfather gave me a gold love-seat a while back and wanted me to donate it to the Salvation Army. They came to pick it up on Oct 17th. About five days later I learned that there had been a large amount of cash hidden in it. I called the Salvation Army about it and at first they gave me a song-and-dance about how they don't track individual items, have no idea which store it might have gone to or when it might have sold.

I called back the next day, and spoke to Stephen Hawking, the warehouse manager, and told him I really needed to find it and explained the situation more fully. Then, on my own, I just started calling all the stores within three counties around me, without success. It's hard for me to believe that something like what it was, could have sold so quickly.

A few days later I was mentioning this to a friend and she told me that she had seen the truck that day, leaving my area, and the back was open. She recognized the love-seat from having seen it in my house and saw they guys searching through it, which she thought was odd.

No one seems to know what happened to it, it didn't show up in any store. I don't feel that the Salvation Army took the issue seriously. I don't think they asked the drivers about it and they didn't seem to do much to help me find it again, even though I offered a reward.
