undue enrichment

Explanation:
Not quite "ilícito" but "indebido". Jurisprudential history below. The principle is that he who enriches himself unduly at the expense of another is obliged to compensate the other.

enrichment without justification, unjustified enrichment

Explanation:
It may or may not be undue, unlawful or illegal. The only thing is, at this point the source of the money is unknown and there is no evidence to support that it was legally acquired.

unearned increment

Explanation:
Not enough context to tell if this might be the term you're looking for, but here 'tis, as an option. It has to do with assets, real estate, for example, that increase in value on account of market forces, etc., while the owner just owns it without doing anything to cause the increase.
