Lost iPod in the Snow Found a Week Later - ImHONEST Story #4

February 26, 2010

Without a doubt, this is the most remarkable ImHONEST.com story so far. Monday the finder filled out the found item report on our website and the next day the owner had his iPod Touch back. It wasn’t until we received this testimonial that we learned about the very interesting back-story.

Hi! I just went to go get it today. It still works! I dropped it outside during the last big snowstorm [in Pennsylvania] and they found it outside a week later. No water damage at all. I was talking to the store manager and he said that one of the employees found it and gave it to him, and couldn’t find any contacts in it. He then saw the sticker on the back and reported it.

Your service is amazing! I had totally forgotten that the sticker was on there and thought my ipod was gone for good.  Thanks so much for what you do because it definitely made me happy to have it again because ipods aren’t cheap.

 Many thanks to the honest employees and the store manager that took the time to report and return the iPod back to its rightful owner. It is stories like these that make what we do so meaningful and rewarding.

“I’m Honest” Tagged Camera Quickly Returned - ImHONEST Story #3

February 15, 2010

The following testimonial was sent in by one of our customers that after a momentary scare was able to quickly get back his camera thanks to the honesty of a stranger and the ImHONEST.com service. Memories captured in photos or videos are one of those things that can never be replaced.   

As an avid photographer, I carry at least one camera with me at all times.  There is a high chance, therefore, that I lose a camera and don’t even know it.  This indeed happened, but thanks to the tag, I received a surprise email from “I’m Honest” the same night saying that I had lost a camera and somebody had found it.  The next day I received the camera back from the same place I had lost it to begin with! Come see my photos at my site.

Honest Driver Returns Bag with Jewelry - News Story #5

December 20, 2009

Just a little over a week ago, I got a very encouraging message from a reader in India who also said he would send a story about honesty form his country. A few days later, he sent a summary of a story that was published in the newspaper called the THE HINDU Chennai Edition. He wrote the following:

“A woman, who was returning home after attending a wedding in Kerala left behind her bag in an paid autorikhaw on Tuesday morning. The bag contained goldjewels and silksarees worth Rs 3 lakhs (equivalent of $6,700).When her husband went to police station to lodge a report after a franctic search for the taxi, the driver himself honestly had returned home with the bag and gave the valuables intact to the woman simultaneously. On information police traced the honest driver and appreaciated him for his honesty and the woman paid him money as the reward.” 

Many thanks to Surendranath R. for having sent in this story about honesty in India. Please share stories of honesty from your country. The world needs more stories about honesty and good deeds.

Payed a Taxi for a Rich Old Man - Good Deeds Story # 6

September 25, 2009

It is always interesting when we think back to strange encounters like these and then we try to figure out why they happened. The one thing that is certain is that despite the awkward circumstances, Gisele reacted in kindness and compassion.

In the middle of the street were an old man, still, while cars passed in both directions. I told him to cross with me. He grabbed my arm and kept still, though his feet moved. In english, (in Venezuela we speak spanish) he asked me to get him to the church. Three blocks from there it took us half an hour. I could watch details of this very ancient body. I wondered if he had skin cancer, for the pink spots he had everywhere. He had a white cream if one of his big ears, so I stopped watching.

And finally we arrive to church. ‘It’s closed! -said the man trembling voice- Well, you just have to take me back’… Don’t remember what my plans were, but they existed no longer. In the middle of the travel back to the mans building, I stopped a taxi and asked him, please, take us two blocks form there. The price was 6.000 bolivares. I searched my pocket. But the old man asked how much and searched his pocket. I told him 3.000 so I payed the other half. And the old man handed me 3.000 bolivares out of a bulk of 20.000 bills.

$130 Cash Turned in - Honesty Story #29

September 14, 2009

This is a great story of  one person attempting to help another person and then things not going as planned. Then thanks to the honesty of a stranger it all worked out in the end.

Last month, (August 2009) my wife and I (who do not have very much money) agreed to pick up some items at Ikea for a missionary couple as I was going to be driving by Austin (the closest Ikea to Mexico) and they gave me $130 to get their much needed household items.

While shopping I was careless and handed the blank envelope containing my shopping list and the couples money to my son who was “helping” me. Of course no sooner than 5 minutes later the envelope had vanished (Lesson #1: little guys have a short attention span for holding envelops :).

I knew I had to replace the money as I had accepted the responsibility. I was quite worried and started asking some of the employees who chuckled at my suggestion to ask security if someone had turned it in but said they would. I kept on my search scouring around in at places I had been, just when I had given up the employee found me and excitedly exclaimed that someone had turned it in. when I picked up the envelope everything was in-tacked. - “That is unheard of nowadays” the man exclaimed.
