Chaos in LA as hundreds gather to hunt for 'Hidden Cash' planted with clues on Twitter

Huge hunt: Hundreds of people searched at bus stops, in rubbish bins and through gardens in search of the hidden cash in Burbank, Los Angeles on Thursday night

A mystery benefactor tweeting clues to hidden cash sparked a frenzy in Los Angeles last night, with hundreds of people swarming the area searching for dollar bills. 


The game continues: The mystery benefactor announced on his Twitter Friday that he or she had no intention of stopping the pay-it-forward scavenger hunt


Throngs of people scavenged through garden beds, searched under bus stops and, police say, caused a traffic nightmare, in Burbank as they hunted for envelopes of cash, according to NBC. 
Within an hour of the anonymous donor posting a clue on his Twitter account @HiddenCash, the area around the local shopping center was inundated with people.
The unknown donor began their pay-it-forward scavenger hunt on May 22 in San Francisco, claiming they were a successful real estate investor who wanted to share their wealth. 
It is now spreading throughout the West Coast, with the donor promising to make it 'bigger and better'.
