“Someone who has made a lot of money in the San Francisco real estate market is giving some of it back — in $20 and $100 bills stuffed in envelopes hidden around the city. All that’s known about the anonymous millionaire, who uses the Twitter handle @HiddenCash: He’s between 35 and 45, recently made $500,000 on a single deal, has some friends helping him with the money drops, and gave away $4,000 between Thursday night and Sunday. He now has more than 52,000 followers, and every tip sparks what the San Francisco Chronicle calls a ‘social-scavenger hunt’ in different districts of the city.”
