So my wife got paid today....

devil on the other shoulder

if the amount goes through close the account
open a new account
the new account will have a new number and it will make it a much larger pain in their ass to recover the money, if they ever catch their mistake.

James that sounded to easy. lol you sound like you have some experience here.......


As for the money i would call them and ask . As much as you might not want to, 2 wrongs dont make a right. In the end if it is a mistake and you keep the money you have only created a larger, possibly legal problem for yourself. and who knows you might find out its for something you didnt know about and you get to keep it guilt free.

Many banks require you to maintain the account for 30 to 60 days past the last activity in order to 'clear' any uncashed checks or drafts. So, that no longer works.
