Yup, I give it back as soon as I realize the mistake. I figure there is no free lunch and what comes around goes around.

I withdrew $500 from Gamesgrid, and received $1000. E-mailed them to let them know, they took it out for hours later, and didn't even e-mail me back to acknowledge or thank me for the e-mail.

i probably wouldn't even notice, and therefor would not give it back.

Plausable deniability. It makes me feel bad, but it works like a charm.

Dump the money back into your account and freeroll. If you win, send the profit to your bank account. If you lose, well, they've already got the money. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Seriously, though -- you did the right thing. I'm not sure about the ethics involved, but some things just aren't worth the hassle.

I would give it back since being able to continue to play on a site (and it is only sites I regularly play on that I withdraw from) has a value that exceeds a three digit amount.

I was once credited an extra grand by a sportsbook (twice what I tried to cash), and I kept every penny of it. They called me once to check on it and I lied. I don't feel bad about it at all, considering that the same book now has a shady reputation and several reports of players not getting paid.

Would you belive that I am having a problem returning the money!

There seems to be a problem with Neteller and they keep getting an error message.
Maybe I will charge them a holding fee.

Did you atleast ask them to fax you six forms of ID, and wait a few weeks before returning the money??
