Yeah. Federal law provides pretty good protections if you report the cards lost before someone tries to use them, but you start to have liability if there's unauthorized use before you report it. This is extra important it if was a debit card vs a credit card.

Either way, hope you earned some good juju for trying to do a good deed.

If you lost your credit card, it's best to get them reissued with new numbers right away. I wouldn't trust any random person on reddit returning them without thinking they were compromised (no offense, I know this is incredibly well-intentioned)

If you found someone's credit card, best to just destroy them
