If they want it it's there
Bernard Riggs of Huntington says American Express must reclaim $1,000 it overpaid him after a burglary. He initially returned a stolen $3,000 batch, received $1,000 back, and then kept the new check, planning to return it when AE discovers the error. He doubts a large company will overlook the amount.
