[QUOTE="donna723, post: 373243, member: 1883"] To me, it sounds like when the amount of her paycheck didn't go down, she thought she was on to a good thing and let it go for a while, a little unexpected windfall. Then when the "windfall" started really mounting up, she got scared! That's probably why she hasn't filed her 2009 taxes yet! She sounds pretty flaky anyway ... I mean who is living out of their car, shares a checking account with their daughter, and has no idea how much her paychecks are! That doesn't make sense! And if you have a checking account, you have to know how much is going in to it so you know how much you can take out! And if she never looked at her account but was expecting the lower amount to be going in there, then the extra should still be there - but apparently she's taken it out and spent it ... or the daughter did. No way did she not know! The way I see it, the company may have been at fault with the first paycheck that was for too many hours - she still should have paid the excess amount back. But after that, she should have noticed, she should have informed someone, and she didn't. I can't believe she didn't know! To me, it would be like if the bank accidentally deposited someone elses money in your account. That doesn't mean that it's yours to take out and spend! It's sort of the same as what happened with my car insurance payment before I could access my checking account online. The money was to be deducted from my account monthly, and every month I deducted that amount from my checkbook. About three months later I noticed this extra money in my account, and looking back on my statements, I didn't see any deductions for car insurance. When I called the insurance agent, they checked and found out that, by mistake, they had been deducting my payments from their own office account instead of from my checking account! Thanks, folks! But since I had been deducting the money every month, it was still sitting there in my account and I just wrote them a check for it. This woman [I]had[/I] to know that she had been spending more money every month than she was supposed to be making! She just needed the money so she didn't say anything for all this time.
