I assume you mean "spend that money". Sure you will be in trouble. You have accidently gotten some money you know you are not legally entitled to and you intend to use it as your own instead of returning it to the owner. You are basically "stealing" the money.

If you take or spend money that doesn't belong to you, it is a crime. You choose.
