College student says he saved $6,000 for new car; it was stolen in minutes

"I had it right here, set up with an envelope right here, and $100 right next to it, and that's it. It was gone," Soto said, pointing to where the money was in his car.
Around 2 p.m. Sept 1, Soto stopped by the Altamonte Springs Wells Fargo on State Route 434 to withdraw $6,000.
From there, he went to Amscot to pick up $100 his dad had sent him to help with the purchase and then made a quick stop at Chipotle for a bite to eat.
Not real smart leaving money in sight but still. Sucks

Could also be legit.

Who works a year, saves 6K and forgets they have it on the dash? NO ONE WITH HALF A BRAIN.
but that's just my opinion

(25,595 posts)I'd gone to Tiffany's here on Walnut Street and purchased a $70,000.00 diamond ring for my bride. I had parked the car with the lights flashing, threw the blue box which had been gift wrapped inside on the front seat and walked half a block to buy a soft pretzel from the vendor and talked to him about our Eagles and the Super Bowl. when I came back, to my disbelief, the ring was gone. My wife is so sad.
Please, everyone, send me money to replace it: make out the check to "PCIntern Bermuda Travel Fund" and send it soon...time is of the essence.
of course
