<prompt> Human: I am keeping this somewhat vague intentionally. I was let go by my employer about 6 weeks ago with no notice basically for sticking up for myself and fellow coworkers. I noticed that they accidentally made a direct deposit payment to me that should not have been made recently somebody must not have deleted me from payroll.In normal circumstances I would just give the money back for example if we parted on good terms as I dont want anything I havent earned, but this company has decided to try to screw me in other ways after I left and generally were the type of people to screw people out of money whenever possible. Id prefer to just donate it to charity or something. What are my legal responsibilities for returning the money to them? Is there a time limit on this sort of thing? Can they come after me ifwhen they notice?  <response>: Your legal responsibilities are to return all of the money to them. Set the funds aside in a high-yield savings account and dont spend it. When they ask for it, pay them back and keep the interest.
