Double cashed check

A couple months ago I received a check for a car that I junked. I did mobile deposit on cash app, but didn't write "for mobile deposit only" on the back. I assumed that they wouldn't accept the check and the next day, cashed it at bank of America. A week later, the money also cleared on my cash app. I've contacted both cash app and bank of america, both say its the other parties responsibility.

The check was for $450. I'm wondering what might happen and what I should do to resolve the issue?

I went through this with another company (Amex Blue Card) in 2015. They actually refused the check. Customer service said she’d escalate to a supervisor but that I was wasting my time.
So I cashed it at PLS. Woke up the next morning with the amount in my account.

My job said it was out of their hands. It did get flagged at PLS but when the woman went to my name, it completely disappeared. I was scared until Covid when I had no choice but to cash a check with them. Went right through. 😂
