Company STILL Paying Me Weeks After I Quit
Ok, I worked at a well known IT Consulting company, and I gave my 2 weeks notice mid May. They had paid me after the first two weeks of my short employment there (6 weeks), so I was all caught up with my paychecks when I quit (3 total paychecks for 6 weeks).
Now, 2 weeks after I quit (did not work one day of those 2 weeks) I got a paycheck. And now I got another paycheck, 2 weeks after that one.
While I love this money, I understand it is not mine. I was wondering what I should do; is there a way I could pay a lawyer to fight the company for the money? Or would my best bet be to try to give the money back directly.
This company has over 100,000 employees; it baffles me that they can make such a silly mistake.
Any advice much appreciated.

Just call the company and tell them you've been receiving paychecks and you think there's been a mistake. If you do it now, they'll probably just correct the mistake and let it go at that. If you wait and keep accepting the money, you'll be responsible for paying the money back. Its a nice mistake, but one that will end up costing you if you don't rectify it soon. Good luck.
