Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

I had a packaged that was sent to my house by UPS with my address on it and no name just S.I.H on the name area. My boyfriend signed for the packaged before I come home and open it. Inside was a gift card from Target for $1000.00 and no one contacted me to let me know that they sent it to me. So I thought that the card was sent from a drawing that I enter and that the card was mine. I received the card around Nov. 30 and I used it for Christmas gifts. Christmas day I found out that a (friend) of mine actually stole someone money off their debit card and bought the Target card and sent it to my address without a name on it. She didn�t call and tell me about the card, because she thought it didn�t go through but she did receive a confirmation that was sent to her email address. So what should I do sent I used the card??

It may be possible to establish that you were acting in good faith. I recommend you do not discuss this situation with anyone except a criminal defense attorney.
