Tell them you wpuld like to keep the interest accrued during the time it was in your account.

Damm that's too bad the bank misplaced that $1.5 millon.
Maybe you should spend some of the $750k they lost. Nah, do the right thing and call them to tell them they dropped an extra $87 in your account and you want to do the right thing. |

There's a Supreme Court case that deals with this, F. Keepers V L. Weepers.

When they notice give it back, but demand that they pay you an ATM fee, and a wire fee, and a large funds fee, and a fee fee, and a fee fee fee. |

Something like that happened at a bank where I was working, back in 1985. A teller in the Wire Transfer Department mistakenly put about $750K into a low-balance checking account that belonged to a poor couple who lived in a trailer park.
The couple went straight to the press after the bank's security director, whose nickname was Moose, banged on their door and demanded that they return the money. Their story was that they had given a bunch of it to a missionary in Africa, after paying off their kids' debts (a house and a couple of cars IIRC.) Bank ended up recovering most of it but had to write off about 1/3 of the money. |

I had that happen but with crypto. They were not closed, and fixed their mistake quickly. Before I could even comprehend what was going on.

Print out a statement (print several dozen), go to the nearest college bar, become sugar daddy for the night.
They'll figure it out and take it back. If you are impatient call them and tell them about it. |

Don't answer any phone calls, respond to any email, answer the doorbell, move out of the house and let the mail build up for as long as possible. Claim you were on an extended retreat in Alaska to contemplate your life and didn't want to be disturbed by the rush and hub-bub of civilization. Grow your beard out and don't bath to complete the illusion. |

Monero buy and fly. France. Maybe Spain.
Pretty sure not having to look over shoulder for the next 10 years is worth more than 2.2 for me. |

So you had $32,448 in your checking account before the deposit?

I had a bank accidentally issue a Debit card to someone and they tied it to my checking account which had 11K in it at the time as I was about to pay off a contractor for some work.
The low lifes drained $500 a day out of it until it was down to 2K. The bank had video of them going through the bank drive through ATM and they also went to a casino in Connecticut for a couple days. The bank at first said I didn't protect my number so someone else got it and I may face a penalty for that but when they got the video of the drive through, I just ended up having to go to the local police and file a police report (I'm guessing so they could press charges), then they sent me a letter briefly stating they refunded all my money and call if I have any questions. |

View Quote With even SPAXX offering 4.98% and credit cards offering 2% cash back on everything and 5% on some things any money at all kept in a checking account is a lot these days. I’ve already looked into transferring some into Fidelity but it’s a $250k daily limit. I’m sure they’ll get it back by tomorrow. |

What would Hunter Biden do? Or any Biden, or other politician for that matter? Follow the shining examples of honesty and integrity set forth by our esteemed government leaders!
Look at how honest and good the leaders are such as Lois Lerner at the IRS, or the FBI masterminds of Fast & Furious! Surely if it's OK to send piles of cash and machine guns to Mexican cartels, it's totally fine spend a little extra cash that was gifted to you by an electronic transaction. Obummer sent pallets of money, that was confiscated right out of our paychecks, to the wonderful dictators of Iran, who clearly are good, rational, and decent human beings... |

View Quote Have to win 3 games of monopoly in a row, get the $200 bank error card 6 times total, free parking has to have an 8 ball, and gift cards to hooker R Is. No requirement to hit free parking, but it sounds fun! |
