My fiancé had her non CPA accountant do her taxes.By mistake he sent it to someone else at the same bank by putting in the wrong account number.He tried to get it back without success.A few months went by and my fiancé finally asked him if he had any insurance.A couple days later my fiancé receives a personal check from the Accountant's wife in the exact amount of the lost refund.A couple more months go by and the accountant passed away.My fiancé still hasnt received her original refund.Now she gets a certified letter from the wife asking for her money back and to get this matter resolved as soon as possible.My question is is there any reason that my fiancé should have to give this check back?There was nothing signed or discussed about paying it back prior to receiving this letter.
