Dont send the money to any account. Report to EFCC ASAP. Dont become an accomplice to something you dont know anything about.

Whizzdom:
On Sunday, last two weeks my mom got a bank alert notification, someone sent her 3 million naira, she wasn't expecting money from anyone.

She was shocked, she called I and my younger sister. We couldn't believe it, so we waited for three days to see if the bank will reverse the money, they didn't, so I and my sister took our mom's ATM card to withdraw and test if the money was genuine.

We bought three phones from it. That's when we believed it was real. Then I transferred #50,000 to my bank and transferred #50k into my mom's other account which we used for foodstuffs.

On the fifth day the bank froze the remaining balance of the huge money sent. But no bank official or staff called my mom. That week passed, on the 3rd day of the second week, one lady called my mom by phone in the afternoon, she said her name is Sarah from so so bank.

My mom is not literate so they spoken in pidgin, she told my mom that she knows that my mom received a #3mil last two weeks and she has spent out of it. That the money was government money. Sarah told my mom to go to any nearest ........bank and write a mandate letter authorizing the bank to unfreeze the remaining #2mil in her acct and the bank will give us the beneficiary account which she will send the money back to. And we should return the money we spent out of it immediately.

When we got to my mom's bank, we went to customer agent area, instead of writing the mandate letter, we told the agent everything that happened leaving nothing untouched. the agent said we should give him the number of the staff that called us, when he called the Sarah with his phone, Sarah gave him another name, instead of introducing herself as Sarah, she said her name is Evelyn. She now told the agent to hold my mom down till she (Evelyn) gets to that bank to arrest my mom or whatever.

The agent said on what basis would he hold my mom down. The agent checked the description when the money was sent and he couldn't understand the description. He was saying how could this be government money. He told my mom to try and return the money spent and he told us to go.

The description on the transfer when it came in on Sunday was: "National Procurement of Scanners" #3million.

Is this truly a government money?

Nairalanders what are your opinions? Because my mom is scared, Sarah or Evelyn bullied her on the phone with jail time.

I don't know what to do.
And later someone like you will come out and say Bihari is a thief... Instead of your to advice your mum to report to the bank immediately it occured ,you took the ATM and started spending from it..You criminally minded and a thief.

Mistakes happen all the time .

Do not transfer to money to another bank .

That money would be there forever .
Just let it be and move on .

But if you grow a conscience later , write a letter to your bank to reverse the transaction .


They would send it back with the narration reversal to wherever it came in from .


Mind you , they can’t do anything to you .

Good afternoon



If he follows your advice, by the time the courts put a lien on his mother's account, which would prevent anyone from spending from the account...till all the money is recovered, plus to say nothing of the legal issues arising that would end up costing him far more than he may want.

As this article puts it...

However, with respect to where the wrong account holder has transferred the money into a different account or has withdrawn the money, the transferor will have to contact the police who will in turn approach the court to place a lien in the form of post no debit on the account of the wrong account holder.

The application to the court by way of motion on notice will contain a supporting affidavit, wherein the transferor (Claimant) will state his/her account number, the name of the bank, the bank of the wrong account holder, plus the statement of account of the transferor and the wrong account holder.

Better not spend money that enters your acocunt wrongly...if you don't want the cops putting a lien on your account.

Too bad, you may be poor for a very long time.
3 million was mistakenly sent into your account and the first thing you did is to buy 3 phones and 100k for foodstuff.
I am confident you don't have a job, if you mentioned that you bought keke with 800k , I assure you that that keke will change your life and even after returning the funds the keke becomes your.
I hope you don't blow the next chance , that's if there will be any.

That's true, but they could harass and arrest us right?

Arrest you for what. The said lady is a thief. Do not be intimidated. Theybare definitely doing something illegal. If you know your right and have right information, she will be sued, she will just cllect the remaining like that.

But spending the money on phone is childish, money that does not belong to you...

I don't know the reason why you guys spend some of the money in the first place when you're quite aware that it doesn't belong to you, anyway just leave your door wide open for the EFCC when they come knocking and stop disturbing us because we're not there when you're buying phones and transferring money that isn't yours to different accounts.

It is not your money and you have no business spending it
Having taken the criminal decision to spend
You did not buy shares, you did not buy land you did not buy treasury bills , you did not put it in a fixed deposit account .
You bought foodstuffs not even foodstuff but "foodstuffs" then you bought phones

Good Job!!

My sincere prayer is that at the very minimum
You are forced to vomit all that money
