Man waiting for $1,700 stimulus payment sees millions in his bank account

NEW CHICAGO, Ind. (WGN via CNN) — The first federal stimulus payments are on their way to Americans, and a northwest Indiana man got quite the shock when he went to the ATM this past weekend.
Charles Calvin is a volunteer firefighter in New Chicago, Indiana, and unbeknownst to him, he received his first stimulus payment from the federal government on Friday. However, it wasn’t the amount he was expecting.
“I went to the ATM at the Family Express, and once I withdrew $200 out of my account, I looked at the available balance still left in my account,” he said.
He said his account had $8.2 million in it. He was only supposed to receive $1,700.

When this happens you say nothing. You tell your banker to say nothing and he will get a cut.
You let it sit there for months untouched and when/if nobody catches it then you go have fun

$7.1 million?
Why did the government give me $5.4 milion?
How can I give the government back their $3.2 million?

Do you think their bank WON'T notice eventually?

but what if you called no take backs?

A few posters have alluded to it, but what WOULD be the gameplan in a situation like this? Just say nothing, tell nobody for a few months and innocently start withdrawing modest amounts ($600 every week or so) and invest it?
The chances of you finding a way to keep / use at least SOME of it have to be higher than the chances of this mistake happening to you in the first place...

Bank mispelled Pelosi.

If you've got big balls, throw it all on the roulette table. Either double up and return the original amount, or head to federal prison.

This has happened before and when they find out you must give back all the cash

article said the bank didn't see the amount he stated
quote:
On Monday morning, Calvin called his bank and they said they didn't see that amount in his checking account anymore. However, they did note that his $1,700 stimulus payment was deposited.

Withdraw all cash. Put property in cousin's name. Head to a non extradition country and wait and see.
