If I were the affiliate, I'd let the sponsor know. Things like this always catch up sooner or later.

If I were the sponsor, I'd acknowledge the mistake and let the affiliate keep it.

In both situations, the other party will always remember the goodwill and honesty of the other. In a business filled with shady, unscrupulous people.. the ones who do the right thing will be remembered and benefit in the long run.

If it was a direct deposit they have the right to subtract it from the bank within X amount of time... so basically, if you don't want your account to get all fucked, I wouldn't go spending it haphazardly. That's providing they notice the mistake.

If it's a check and you need the money now, contact the sponsor and ask them if it's ok to cash it/dfeposit it and you will send them back the difference, that way you're not standing around with your dick in your hand waiting for money you may need now while waiting on a new check to be issued.

I have had this happen many times over the years.

In each case the sponsor told me to keep them both and cash them both against future payments. But then they were with sponsors I had been with for years and I had enough rebills alone to recoup their payment in no time at all.

Speaking of Nasty Dollars. My first check from them was sent to the wrong address. I faked my address because I didn't want porn stuff coming to my house. They informed me that it had been sent back to them and they resent it to my actual address via FedEX next day air for $28. The check was worth $35. A year later when I learned how to obtain traffic I sent it all to them. They got their money back and then some I am sure. I bought 2 cars off the money I made from them.

Once we had a guy ad a 0 to our wire, made it 6 figures... But they realized it quickly and contacted us asap to get it back.

Let's say we all LOL'd ;)
