You do the right thing and of course give it back, but you aren’t a bank you’re a bookie. The interst rate is 28% a year.

tldr; In May 2021, Crypto.com mistakenly transferred $10.5 million to Thevamanogari Manivel instead of a $100 refund due to a clerical error. The error went unnoticed for seven months, during which Manivel spent the money on a luxury home, cars, and gifts. Crypto.com filed a lawsuit to recover the funds, and in August 2022, the court ordered the sale of the property and return of remaining funds. Manivel was later sentenced to community service for spending the money. The incident highlighted operational failings at Crypto.com, impacting its reputation.

Random person steals your crypto = police do nothing
Big corporation literally gives someone their crypto = tracked down and arrested
