Mystery Philly Man Gives $100 to People Who Can Find Him


Philadelphia residents are getting 13 minutes to get a free $100.

Check out this Twitter account: @FindMePhilly. It promises: "$100 if you can find me. You have 13 minutes. Timer starts when I post the first picture from a new location."

A mystery man posts a pic from a famous Philly landmark to Twitter, Instagram and Vine, and the first person to get there within 13 minutes gets a Benjamin. For free.

If no one shows up in time, the guy disappears - and usually leaves a picture of Benjamin Franklin behind.

WTXF tracked the mystery man down, but he wouldn't go on camera.

"He tells us he's not rich, but did win a few thousand dollars from a recent contest. He's made a resolution to give all that money away to strangers and visit Philly sites in the process."

WTXF spoke with folks who'd gotten the $100 - you can see those interviews on their website.

The mystery man says he's been getting lots of emails with people asking for money, and wishes he could help them all.
