It's a prank.. Surely..??

Maybe the cleaner sneaked into the office when nobody was looking and posted it for a laugh?

Then again.. ..

This reminds me of a story that happened to my uncle. He was dog sitting for a friend while they were on holiday but unfortunately the dog passed away. He rang the vet and they said to bring it down so they could dispose of it properly but as his car was in for an MOT he had to cram it in a suitcase and take the train to Poole. Well it was a big dog and so the bag was very heavy. A passer by offered to help him up the stairs with it. However the passerby was nothing more than a chancer and ran off with the bag of what he must have thought was full of loot. My uncle had the last laugh when all he got was a dead dog in a bag. The moral of the story is not to read story's about dogs retrieving mystery items from the sea.
