Doubtful. Probably afraid of the consequences (did drone caused accident/personal injury?). Which raises a good hypothetical question. What would you do if this happens to you... Would you claim your lost drone not knowing what damages it might have caused? Is it worth the the legal consequences that you recover probably damaged beyond repair drone?
I think I'll do the right thing and own up to it... But who knows?
Not mine, but nice try. Obviously you must be an FAA investigator trying to identify the owner of an unregistered UAS so that the Harvard Square privacy liberals can prosecute the owner.
Just kidding. LOL.
Kudos for trying to help out. DJI had been reluctant in the past to help get these lost aircraft back to their owners.

Good question. I wonder how many would own up to it. To me, a pilot should not even lift off unless they are willing to be responsible about what may happen. For me, I have my name, mobile number, and AMA number on my P3 body, separately on the gimbal (since it so often detaches) and also in a README text file on the SD card. I have also been meaning to add it to my batteries since they seem to eject.
Not only is my name, email and phone on every card (both as a text [readmeiffound.txt] and readmeiffound.pdf!), but a mention of a reward as well. I keep the reward money stashed in my hard case.
