<prompt> Human: I signed a 3 months freelance consulting contract with a company and they just paid me forth months fees. I am not even in touch with them since a month. What do ?  <response>: Its in your best interest to fess up and return the money before they notice. If you keep the money, you might get away with it this time. But by reaching out first, you are showing that you are an honest, integrous person. This will benefit you in the long run by ensuring that they think of you first when looking to hire another contractor, or recommending you to others. One small, good gesture now will lead to loads of benefits down the road. Dont wait for them to contact you- you wont be able to pay the innocent game of Oh I didnt even notice...
