Can I Spend This Money? by Sonofgod1990(op): 1:30pm On Oct 03
Someone very close to me collected my account number to send it to somebody so that the person will send him money through my opay account number.

I letter received the alert and it was 155,000 from access bank. I letter on received another 155,000 from moniepoint in a space of 2 hours. I now called the person that collected my account number. I asked him. How much does the person want to send to you and he told me it was 155,000. The issue now is that the alert came with 2 different names. I gave the man his 155,000 and I'm still with the other 155000. And this thing happened on 9th of last month been September.....I still never received a call...

A friend of mine told me to allow the money spend like one month before I go start to spend the money

Honesty remains the best policy. Ask the person who collected your account details to confirm exactly who sent the money. He should be able to identify at least one sender, be transparent about the other and let him decide. N155K is certainly not worth compromising your integrity.

More importantly, stop allowing money into your account for transactions you know nothing about. Criminals sometimes use innocent-looking accounts to obscure money trails and people have ended up facing serious legal consequences for being unwittingly involved. Protect yourself, if you cannot verify the source and purpose of a payment, do not facilitate it.

You should let mumsy know, and verify from who she was expecting the money from as to which account they used to send the money.

155k is too specific to be a random alert within few hours apart.

The first transaction from one bank may have showed fail, but the money already went through and that's why the person used moniepoint.

They'll find out one day from bank statement.

You can only compromise what you have.
I doubt if the receiver has integrity at all.

Honesty is not always the best policy, sometimes it can get you into more trouble than not being honest. Just saying though, have no comments about the OP's predicament.
