Help! Can anyone answer the following legal question?
I'm rather stuck between morality and legality.
I worked 2hrs at Verizon (in Texas) on 1/2/01 so I could get my vacation pay of 5days Personal days and 3weeks Vacation
days for 2001 which would have made my last day
of pay 1/31. So far no problem, but now they are still continuing to pay me as if I was still on the payroll. I have found new employment in California with a different company. As for my previous employment with Verizon, I signed and filled out all the required exiting paperwork and gave it to my manager for my voluntary resignation and she said that she "...had taken care of it all..." but I'm
concerned that I will continue to be paid (it's direct
deposit into my checking account) and that at sometime
in the future they will sue to get the money back
eventhough the error is theirs. The flip side of the
equation is that if their too dumb to figure out that
I'm no longer employed, let 'em keep paying me.
I haven't contacted my previous manager or anyone else
to let them know what's going on.

Any ideas about what to do? Shaddup and take the
money, or confess innocence?
