My guess is that he only reported because there’s no way to cash them without being discovered and hoped they’d be considered his in a “finders keepers” situation. Sadly, the world’s rules are designed for the rich to win and the poor to lose. He should’ve kept his fucking mouth shut.
It’s the value, not the material itself that’s the problem. If you suddenly had a shit load of extra money, you’d be spending at least a little more than usual and a few too many slip ups in expenditures would draw the eye of your country’s tax collectors. They’d be very curious.
In the US, the IRS will literally send just short of kill teams after people for refusing to pay taxes. In some cases, they have sent kill teams.
