This has been hashed out here multiple times and I'm not wanting to do it again, but there is the belief that Joe, not the sharpest tack in the box, did take the money initially not for sure what it was his task to do. Upon understanding what was expected of him, he attempted to give the money back on multiple instances.

I don't think taking the money is in doubt. Throwing the series, however, is in doubt.

I sort of feel as if Joe was taken advantage of due to the thought that he was dumb enough to go along with it, adding him into the scheme because he was talented enough to foil it with his performance. I feel as if they 'talked over his head' in getting him to take the money, but later, when someone explained it fully to him, he wanted no part of it.
