Following the BA and Virgin fuel overcharge scandal, US charities stand to benefit from any unclaimed refunds. Perhaps UK charities should start planning how to get their hands on this potentially huge windfall? Would be fuelish not to try...or would some find it unethical to accept donations derived at in this way?

I'm with General Booth ('Only problem with tainted money is that there ain't enough of it').
Someone in dire need almost certainly won't care about the origin of the money - they'd just be grateful that it was there.
Short version: get in there!
