Mine: i mistakenly transfer 24k into wrong account (Opay account).
At end the of the number is 99, i mistakenly typed 96......

I called that number immediately..... Did u know what he said...?

He told me via phone, who asked u to send money to me.... That i prayed about the money.....

That person didn't return the money back till now.

Finally, He blocked my number.

But, if it is me.... I will return the money immediately.

No and never received.

Sent 500k instead of 50k like 2 times.

One was to a friend who returned 450k and the other was my mom who didnt return it.
She returned blessings and prayers instead of 450k.
most of you don't help

Surprised this topic hasnt been opened prior.

Mine was with Wema Bank.
Its been going on for 3 years.
I was doing a #gaveaway# to 10 people #3k each and mistakenly typed the wrong a/c for one.
I called the bank
Emailed the bank.
Every time I call , Its a new person handling the case.
And I have to recap everything - Very stupid not to have a ticketing system for continuity sake.

Yes, the first time it happen someone wants me to transfer recharge card of #500 to his girlfriend in another state. Instead of #500 I mistakenly sent recharge card of# 5000 the lady refused to sent back the recharge card

Second one , I wanted to found bet9ja for someone when I was doing it a friend was busy talking to me and he distracted my attention . One number was different and I failed to check the name before sending it. That was how I mistakenly sent #5000 to unknown person.

There was a day some mistakenly sent # 15,000 to me . He called me and I sent back his money.

Now ,as I am talking, some mistakenly sent #5000 to me . I tried to called him but his number was not going.

If you are using wallet such as Palmpay, opay, kuda it is possible you mistakenly sent money to someone or someone mistakenly sent money to you

1.5million.

Opened my internet banking app, searched saved beneficiaries using bank name and mistakenly clicked another name.

Luckily and fortunately, the recipient was a work colleague. In fact, it was the colleague that asked me why I credited them with 1.5m the next day at work which is when I realized my error.

Now I double and triple check before I hit send
but u can't someone in need with 5k

No. But I have mistakenly transferred twice due to bad network thinking it has not gone. Thank God it was to a course mate.
8mins later, immediately I got double alerts, I checked my app and saw it. Kpa kpa kpa I called her. Aunty help me revert my 15k if you no want make I go Benin for you matter. She laughed hard, played prank with me and later revert it.

Since then any transfer if my brain is not connecting or settle I don't do it.
lol this just happened to me like an hour ago
Same amount πŸ˜‚
Sent it to a coursemate πŸ˜‚
I sent the money twice
He has refunded me though immediately

Forget about being dumb, it occurs many times maybe due to trying to do many things at the same time. It happened to me once, I sent 100k to a wrong Gtb account till today I don’t know the person who owns the account because it looks like an Hausa name and Gtb bank was not helping either. I once received 3M from my business partner by mistake who saved my account number as beneficiary and I sent it to him back although we never met in person before but I’m bigger than that.
God when @your last statement.

Mistakes no matter how careful you are do occur. Sometimes back l transferred 3k to my Airtel account unknowingly that l have transposed the numbers. The receiver for whatever reason refused to return the amount and efforts to contact the receiver were in vain as the number remained switch off. I am still in pains nearly a year now if not months plus. That's my hard luck.
