I have a hard time believing this. A long time ago, I inadvertently sent some bitcoins (like $150 worth at the time) to a wrong address. It turned out to be an old mining pool address DoubleC was running. I contacted him, explained what happened, and he actually dug out the old files to his pool, retrieved the coins and sent them back to me. I knew from then on that he's an honest man. He could have easily just ignored my message.
