Ever since a mysterious millionaire began hiding envelopes stuffed with cash around major California cities, copycat donors have popped up in Texas, Florida, Colorado and more.
The anonymous man who started it all has more than 300,000 followers on Twitter. That’s a lot of people searching for the same prize. Today, he’s in Los Angeles, but might be heading to New York soon.
If you’re playing along, here’s how to increase your odds:
Be an Expert on Your City
People who know their city inside and out prove to be the most successful in the mystery man’s game.
So if you’re new to town, enlist some friends to help. The anonymous real estate investor behind @HiddenCashoften posts photo clues of obscure places around the city, like the view from a random park bench or street corner.
If you recognize the scene, you’re in luck. But be quick, the cash could be found any minute.
Think About Transportation
It’s hard to say where the money will be hidden next, but if there’s one theme we’re seeing, it’s transportation.
The mysterious donor has been known to tape envelopes stuffed with cash to parking meters, bus stops, bike racks – even a bulldozer parked on the beach.
Brush Off Your Riddle-Solving Skills
Some of the Hidden Cash clues are straightforward, but others are trickier to solve.
