I have worked for a German retail store for 2 months. I have quit in the end of May. However, today they sent me the salary for June. What should I do with the money?

upd. when i quit in the end of may, i handed them a letter asking to release me "at the next available date". could it be that the next available date was in June?

Big companies are big, small companies often outsource their accounting. In both cases it can take quite a while for the news that you quit to reach the person responsible for the payment.

As others said: contact them and be prepared to pay it back.
