Free gold
Probably not. No such thing as a free lunch!
Either the person sent to the wrong one by accident or it was a shady deal. You could write back asking them if it was an accident or if you never hear from them again/they sound fishy you can open a support ticket.
You can return mail without taking anything. Sounds like it was sent to the wrong person and I am sure they would appreciate it back.
Your options are:
- Return the gold to them with a note.
- Return to sender, i.e. without a note.
- Take the gold, say nothing
- Take the gold, send in a support ticket to ask them to review the situation.
(1) is great if the person made a mistake. They might even tip you a reward. (2) costs you nothing. (4) is less altruistic than (1) or (2), but covers you in case there’s something odd going on.
The only option with risk would be (3), to take the money and run.

Some people do that for newbies, were you asking for help in map chat or something? Either way, pretty weird for them to not send a note like “welcome to gw2” or something with it.

They do? With this kind of amount? Wish I knew where those people were when I was starting out lol.

There’s 2-3 people I’ve known who distributed non-coin items worth that much. They made tons on the TP and would make tons more. It was a drop in the bucket to toss a few hundred on random folks (or trivia contest winners or someone who said something interesting in chat).
I doubt that’s what happened in this case — there was always some sort of communication besides the ‘gift’. Still, stranger things…
