...So, when I was let go at my old job, my boss was like "you worked here almost the full fiscal year, if we get bonuses this year, you'll get the proportional share."

My severance docs specifically disqualified me from a bonus. When I inquired with HR they indicated that it came from the CEO and he was explicit the my team and I were not bonus eligible.

I just received it in my bank account...so, what happened here?

1. They paid me a bonus in error?
2. My former boss was like "fuck it" and paid it to me anyway out of the bonus pool?
3. Should I not touch it for a few days...move it? What?
