Recipient is correct to block, in case your friend is washing money.

Transfer wrong, inconvenience recipient.

I kena a few times. I wait for bank to reverse it. Then bank write to me that they will reverse. In the letter say until like I am trying to keep the money illegally. Blardy idiot dbees. Also not my fault. Some more a few ten dollars nia.

just report to bank
they send a letter to other party to return it
Takes a couple of months before you see your money .
btw, don think it's a letter of demand.
is kind of a request to do so iirc.

so it's up to the person to return u.
cus it might be a business agreement that you agreed to paynow that person, then suddenly u regret the service and want to take back your payment.

no wor.
Happened to me twice (sent to me by mistake)
Didn't realised until i receive letter from bank and need to sign/acknowledge send it back to them.
quite small amount (less than $100) if i remember correctly
Bank just deduct from my account after that.
Is a local bank.

this is why i always ask for their paynow display name and verify it on my side first before pressing send.

i also give ppl my paynow display name when receiving incoming paynow transfers.

it is for users to verify that the recipient is correct. i don't get why people don't care.

it's not scam but he made mistake with the last number wrongly while paying it very early morning around 3-4 am. Just want to check if he can bring this case into small claim court instead of civil suit.

My friend made over $10k paynowed to wrong number. And the recipient blocked my friend to contact. Only knows the recipient's name and phone number. already reported to bank however they say just wait. also report to police but no progress yet. Can anyone advise how to do in this case?

maybe the rules had changed.
my experience was 10+years back when i transferred to the wrong bank account.

never see the money ever again. $100 nia so it's ok.

Usually cannot get. The banks cannot force the recipient. The police have thousands of cases each day on including scams and other petty cases. But surprisingly when a big company or banks makes wrong payment and reports to police, they will immediately act. I'm not sure why this double standards..

Have to be careful... Your friend could be involved in money laundering ... If you are not the ts, better don't get involved...

I am not my friend and it's nothing to do with money laundering. Of course, I won't involve too.
