Of course, the man is entirely at fault because he knows in the first place that he's gambling the money that he did not own. And he even lose it all. If he is just honest and a responsible person, then he should return the huge amount of money to the sender as its clearly sent to him mistakenly. But he did not do what is supposed the right thing to do. He turned out to be greedy instead. But good thing he realized his fault in the end and decides to pay back the huge amount even bit by bit.
