The FBI took my salvage

but oh so nice how the FBI wants all your information .. just for being a good citizen ..QUOTE]

They want it because he found the evidence. He may have to testify about finding it if they bring a case.

PS. This might have been said earlier but I didn't get to read the whole thread.

What is it with me? A couple of months ago I found a 40 cal. launch grenade in the lake and the Air Force bomb squad came to my house and took it away (http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=35209).
Saturday I found a red metal box (about 18”X12”X16”) in 12 foot of water in a local river. Inside, in a big trash bag, were a bunch of documents, half burned, some cut up. There were passports, Visas, Washington state drivers lic., social security cards (14 different ones, to be exact), cut up credit cards and more. There were computer disks burned and broken into pieces. The passports were issued in South Africa and it looked like the people entered the US through Canada. The names on the passports were not pronounceable by me. By the condition of the stuff I would guess it had not been in the river more than 24 hours. After a couple of calls, I was directed to the FBI. I went down to the local office with the red metal case, and of course, they took it away. They seemed VERY interested. They wanted to know exactly where I found it and exactly when. They wanted to know what I'd touched. They wanted all MY info including my social security number.
Probably nothing, but weird, huh? You just never know what you’ll find in the water. People think they can just toss it in and it’s gone forever.

You're in big trouble now

Just for the record, this happened, and was posted in 2003. As you well know, there has been no new 911-ish attacks since then. Obviously I singlehandedly saved the United States from a second terrorist attack.

You're welcome.
