Google paid a guy about $250,000 without any specific work for the firm by accident.

On Tuesday, a guy known as Sam Curry, a staff member of the cryptocurrency firm Yuga Labs, characterized the payment as perplexing on his verified Twitter handle, @samwyco.

"It's been a little more than 3 weeks since Google unexpectedly paid me $249,999 and I still haven't heard anything on the support request," Curry tweeted.

It's been a little over 3 weeks since Google randomly sent me $249,999 and I still haven't heard anything on the support ticket. Is there any way we could get in touch @Google?

“Is there any way we could get in touch @Google?”

“It’s OK if you don’t want it back,” he added.

Meanwhile, Google said it is working to get the money back.

“Our team recently made a payment to the wrong party as the result of human error,” wrote a Google spokesperson in an email to CNN.

“We appreciate that it was quickly communicated to us by the impacted partner, and we are working to correct it.”
