Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Georgia
Check related
I purchased a prepaid Visa Card from GreenDot at a CVS store. When I tried to activate it online, they froze my account stating that I had too many accounts, and they would mail me a check for the 450$ I applied to the account. I called them immediately and got them to apply the money to one of my existing cards, and I used the funds within 24 hours. BUT, I still received a check from them for 450$ in the mail. Can I get into any legal trouble if I cash this check?

Yes, you could end up with a legal problem. Return the check.

Aside from the fact that most people would obviously see this is stealing and not even get to the legal issues, you can be asuured that Visa will see that you pay the money back.
