I remember back in 2004 when a bank mistakenly sent 4k to the account of my friend, they used police to threaten the guy till he returned the money..

That N4k of 2004 may be equivalent to N400000 of today. Workers salaries and pay did not increase at the rate.

That's the depth PDP and APC took the country and its citizens to.

He had choices, he could have ran away to any nearby country, in case you think he is not exposed to that level, he could have decided to buy some land in his village, spend part of it in his village boys by buying drinks for them and then pay for a room in a 4star hotel where he could have been enjoying himself with some girls.
and when he's caught, he will be treated as a criminal

bro this is a very big lie

In this kind of situation bank can only trace u with just 3 things

Phone number linked with the account…..once u stop using the phone n sim nobody can trace u

Address submitted in bank…… move from Lagos to sokoto n u re a free man, noting like data capturing in Nigeria before u enter any state

Bvn…….once u transfer d money but by bit ( within 5 hours) to an online wallet that bvn is not attached then from there u move d money n delete d online wallet


Just move to like 3 geopolitical zones apart n d next day u move to Ghana

U can travel to Ghana without international passport
Cc…..Gboom


Wow. All this stress just so you can spend money that doesn't belong to you? shocked


Please which online wallet doesn't have your BVN? .. you seem to have forgotten that you must have since linked your major phone number to your BVN.. so any online wallet to which you supplied your phone number already has your BVN grin.. Which online wallet will register you without you supplying your BVN and NIN linked Phone number?

And if you throw away your sim and phone, how are you going to register another sim without BVN and NIN?.. and have you thrown away the next of kin contacts you supplied when registering the SIM?.. abi you will go and kill all your next of kin so that you won't be traced through them? grin


What will you also do with the next of kin contacts you have submitted in banks, while obtaining Driver's licence, etc?

You can't beat a system that's out to get you Bro.. Comot eye for people property make you no go carry wahala wey go follow you till e kill you and even your loved ones.

Can this be true?

You cannot mistakenly send 10M without your account officer beckoning on you.

You can't use USSD code to send such amount

Good job. But if he refuses to send back the money, what steps can one take to reclaim the money back?

Nothing o cos without that man, bank can't just enter his account and withdraw. Worse is freeze that money forever which the banks would prefer sef cos they are the custodian and that money remains eternally theirs until the guy turn up

A Nigerian auto mechanic identified as Timothy has been rewarded with N50k for returning N10.8m mistakenly sent to his bank account, IGBERETV reports.

One of Timothy's customers, Chinonso Ndukwe, disclosed this on Facebook, saying that Timothy narrated the story to him when he met him on Tuesday.

He doesn’t have any choice than to return the money if he does not want to have issue with the law.

Get a court order to freeze the account 2. Get ready to defend your points because it's your words against his... Lol, mechanic can claim it's a payment for a vehicle he bought for you and cook up some stories with a good lawyer. You're in more soup if you sent the money without a written reference attached..
But luck will shine on you when the mechanic run away! Smiles... That's an act of guilt so your winning 98% but if baba stand, get lawyer argue with you ehnn

This has absolutely nothing to do with being honest.. Honesty is tested when one can make away with such amount with a near-zero chance of getting caught.


In this instance, he had to return the money if he doesn't want to be on the run from the Law, with his bank details clearly showing as the recipient of that money ;Do

He would have been caught one way or the other if he didn't return that money.. He has saved himself from eating a lot of prison beans, and even got free 50k ontop grin


Nice day at the office for him, if you ask me cool

The reward is ok.

Returning what is not yours should be a matter of personal satisfaction without an expectation of reward.
