It’s pretty common these days for people to accidentally send money to the wrong person. While it’s generally considered an honest mistake, but imagine sending a big amount and then wondering if you’ll ever get it back…
In a recent story that’s been circulating online, @irriananana shared on her X (formerly known as Twitter) how she recently received a large sum of money transferred into her bank account.
She received RM30K in her bank account!
In her post, the woman shared how she received a large sum of money that was mistakenly transferred into her bank account without knowing who it came from.
Irriana explained that after receiving RM30K, she waited 2 weeks for the sender to claim it. When no response came, she took matters into her own hands and tracked down the owner herself.
The caption of the post reads,
“Someone accidentally transferred RM30K to me. I waited 2 weeks for someone to claim it, but eventually had to trace the owner myself.”
She kept the RM30K into a separate account
Irriana even took the initiative to create a separate ‘tabung‘ account and transferred the RM30K into it to avoid any temptation to spend the money.
She continued to share that after waiting for a whole month to finding the owner, she finally managed to get in touch with him.
The owner explain how he mistakenly entered the wrong account number details which caused the money to be transferred to her account instead.
“I asked for a receipt, the transfer amount, his ID, when and what time, and we did the transaction with an agreement. I felt sorry and worried that if it was some old man’s money for going on Hajj, it might get frozen.”
Irriana’s honesty is definitely something we should all admire, especially with such a large amount of money involved!
