If it happened in Nigeria, no one wud transfer to another account, unless as a decoy to use the other bank to withdraw.

Before them go use the original bank again e go reach years.

Even at that, it's very possible, we don't have a system in place to recoup such money speedily.

Freeze the account na no wahala. The person go first use am do business then return am after 2 weeks

Happened here during the submarine cable cut for one particular bank.

Even if your balance was 5k you could transfer 1 million to another account 🤣🤣

Those who knew kept it mute and ran things. I am surprised it never made the news 🤣

Since it was online transaction and not physical cash, it can still be traced to everyone who took the money, 40 million dollars is over 40 billion naira, the major problem will be retrieving the money back because some people spend anyhow.

Since it was mainly students who took the money, they should declare it as student loan and give all of them till after graduation to pay back like Tinubu is trying to do here which he hasn't done, at least Ethiopian government can claim they achieved student loan and disbursement in less than 24 hours something Tinubu has not yet been able to do...
one of my friends discovered a glitch in a Nigerian bank.... twas expired atm cards.... Him transfer like 150k or so... D bank traced him home oh... They didn't involve d police Sha... They jst told him dat they have his BVN and dat they'll block him from opening any account in Nigeria again... He went to meet d bank manager and they put d amount on his account... He paid d money oh...

I don't know how advanvce their tech is, but they can't retrieve half of that money. Many will rather not use bank again if this were to happen in Nigeria.

Nija people that forfeit bvn to mere 12k on easy easybuy/ loan app

Ethiopia has good data base and espionage network.

The problem is some would have spent the money, use part to eat.

But they will catch them ALL. Trust me.

it happens to me in first bank years ago, I went there to withdraw 20k only to realize the ATM paid me more than what I withdrew. When I was about to pay my workers they told me the money I paid them was more than 20k 3days later the bank called me, I just told them to debit the excess from my account

grin You last cracks me up.

Well, i feel it the systems are tight and they are able to identify the debits per individual, through their own version of NIN/BVN, then as long as these persons use the bank, they can recoup the funds, via PNB

Dishonesty everywhere.

Banks MUST NOT have such glitch in Nigeria. If people can easily waylay trucks carrying food, what would happen in the unlikely event that it happens to any bank?
With our population, banks will lose trillions. And they cannot get it all back.
