This reminds me of Patrick Combs who deposited a fake junk mail check “for the joke” in 1995 and actually received the 95000$ in his personal bank account. The story of what happened after is actually really interesting. Here is a good video about it (it is in french but there is good subtitles in english, and a lot of the video is in english anyway). He manage to write a book about it, became some kind of national hero representing the honest simple man vs the big banks, and became a motivational speaker, telling the story of his war with the bank, all the intimidation, fears, etc.
