Hi.
I recently had a claim for partial theft come through and went yesterday to pick up the check. I was in a rush and didnt pay too much attention to anything and just dropped the check off with my bank for deposit. Later I found out the check had been misprinted from the stated amount of the invoice.
My question: I've heard several different things about keeping this money from insurance fraud to embezzlement. Everything I have read about it, however says that it is the obligation of the insurance company to report the mistake to me and only then do I have a legal obligation to return it. Even then, there is some statute of limitations on this matter which puts a time frame on when they can report this to me.
Anyone able to clear this up for me?
