Keeping it no questions asked, Eat there next time just to help them make a little of it back. Somewhere around 2-3 bucks.

Taco Bell is a giant corporation that is in the pocket of PepsiCo. A measly $2000 is literally NOTHING to them. Plus, I worked for Taco Bell as a teenager for several months for practically slave wages. So yeah, I'd keep every penny of it and wouldn't feel the slightest bit of guilt about it either.

aren't taco bells franchises tho?

Re: Taco Bell Drive Thru gives customer $2000 instead of a burrito

No it isn't, you couldn't prove the requisite intent.

Wrong. You don't have to prove intent for that. If a bank accidentally deposits money in your bank and you knowingly use it/remove it/dont report it, it constitutes larceny.

You'd have a very hard time proving that you had no idea the money wasn't yours in the first place.

penal law for larceny.

By acquiring lost property.
A person acquires lost property when he exercises control over
property of another which he knows to have been lost or mislaid, or to
have been delivered under a mistake as to the identity of the recipient
or the nature or amount of the property, without taking reasonable
measures to return such property to the owner;

Re: Taco Bell Drive Thru gives customer $2000 instead of a burrito

I'd return it without a doubt. It's immoral and dishonest to keep money that isn't yours.

This! I'm shocked at how many people say they wouldn't return it.

There are franchises in addition to the corporate majority. Either way, $2000 is not a lot of money in this day and age. At least to me it isn't.

Re: Taco Bell Drive Thru gives customer $2000 instead of a burrito

I'd give it back for many reasons...

1. So that person in the drive thru wouldn't lose their jobs.

2. It's stealing no way else to put it, and I'm not a thief.

3. The man upstairs knows, and I'm scared of him more than the police.

4. Because morality says," it's the right thing to do".

5. Nothing good will come of it, for you or the other person. You'll get punished some kind of way in the end.

Re: Taco Bell Drive Thru gives customer $2000 instead of a burrito

Nah, I'd keep it.

You can question my morals if you want, but I wouldn't return it...

I have a $3000 loan that is standing in the way of me going to college right now..

A Taco Bell probably brings in $5,000-$8,000 a week. It's a lot of money

Exactly...you have to pay the money back to the bank, if you withdraw it (or even just transfer to your savings account) they'll figure everything out and correct the error. If you've spent any of the money the bank's coming for you (along with the cops usually).

If something seems way too good to be true then it usually is.

Re: Taco Bell Drive Thru gives customer $2000 instead of a burrito

I would return it. I have been given too much money back from fast food restaurants before and returned it. Wasn't charged for food that I ordered and told the waiter about it. Just the right thing to do.
