QuoteTurns out, an ex of mine that I hadn't talked to in months dropped $200 in my account. I have no idea why she did this. She didn't even call me to let me know. Manifest had to tell me where the money came from.
Hell if it's been months just enjoy the jumps and don't call. It could be her way for you to contact here again. Like oohhh I left a movie at your house can I come buy and get it! If she hasn't called you then she obviously doesn't want the money back!!!

I think it all depends on what terms you two are on and why you broke up.

QuoteQuoteIf you want to avoid the drama, give her back the money and tell her "thanks, but no thanks". Some woman and men, have motives.
That is exactly what I would do. It's not right to lead someone on or to accept gifts/use their money if you are not a close friend or SO. (Men, especially extremely rich men, try to do that kind of thing all the time with with women.) Unless you are close friends or lovers already, in which case it's just money and a thoughtful gesture, it's best to not accept the money or gift.
Like I said though, she never called. It would be different if she left the money and told me that she did it. You do have a point though and it's not like I need the money but........who turns down 10 free skydives

Some one who doesn't want the drama and has good morals.
You don't have to confront her. Mail her a check with a note saying "thanks, but no thanks." Period, end of subject.
You are going to open up a can a worms if you don't send her back the money. Trust me on this one, it might not happen tomorrow, or even a month from now, but she will contact you and throw the fact that she "gave" you jump money if you don't send it back.

Are you sure she didn't owe you money for something and though she'd pay you back this way? Thats really strange for THAT much money to be put on your account as a gift.
Unless she owed you that money, keeping it is not the right thing to do.

I'd return the money by mail with a note saying "Thanks anyhow." sign your name and fahgetaboudit. If, you keep the money, she's got one on you. Keep the slate clean.
