So how would I word this? My ex BoDee Jones received an automatic deposit of * on February 15th deposited in his account by university of phoenix for excess funds addressed to myself. After speaking to him about this and him knowing it does not belong to him, he still spent it and does not plan to pay me back any of this money.

"On February 15th, an automatic deposit of $*, intended for me and from the University of Phoenix, was erroneously deposited into the account of my ex, BoDee Jones. Despite acknowledging that the funds did not belong to him, he chose to spend them and refused to repay me."
Could you add to that he has knowledge that my name has not been on this account since November of *
You could add: "Furthermore, Mr. Jones knew that my name had been removed from this account since November *, yet he still proceeded to spend the funds knowing they were not his to use."
