What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Virginia
A friend of my son's (old friend of the family's, almost like a second son) cashed a payroll check at a local store - like Walmart or a big box store. It was for $800+ (an odd amount). The store gave him $1600+ (another odd amount that was NOT double the amount, nor just $800 more than the amount).
When he got home he realized it was way too much money, but he wants to keep it. I'm really worried that he can get in trouble for this.
Apart from being morally wrong, is this illegal or a crime of some sort?
Thanks!
