[MichealScott]

think is CSB. 10k but nv check name. Anw, I think the recipient confirm cannot keep the money. I rmb seeing such news before where recipient receive money in their bank out of nowhere and she keep quiet until police contact her to return but she spend finish already. I forgot what's the ending.

This scenario very common overseas
If recipient refuses to return of own accord , it takes a long time for action to be taken
Bank won't just reverse transaction even if you gave them a very convincing explanation

gone already. If person decide to return is out of goodwill

Should always try out initial transfer of $1 first. Banks can only request but recipient doesn’t need to return a single cent if he/she doesn’t want to

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?

Paynow to wrong number is the sender fault. Receiving party got no obligation to return. Most likely he will just change his hp number

Ask your friend go to mp

Is an offense to keep money that isn't yours. Just Google, there are cases of wrongful keeping money that doesn't belong to them. Ie bank issue wrong amount to account that was withdrawn is also unlawful

Most phone numbers in sg don’t even belong to locals so very hard to get them to return.

IMHO.
See a FAQ here.

SMS this to the party and highlight this.

What if I receive an unexpected payment from an unknown source via PayNow?

You should call our DBS/POSB hotline immediately to report the erroneous transfer and we will take the necessary steps to reverse such transaction.
Please note that if we are informed by the sender of the funds (or an authorised representative) that a transfer was made to you erroneously, the Bank has the right to and may reverse such transaction pursuant to our Standard Terms and Conditions Governing Accounts without further reference to you. If you wish to dispute the error alleged by the sender, you may approach the sender of the funds directly.
We wish to highlight that it is a criminal offence to hold or use funds that do not belong to you.

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.

Don't cause trouble for ppl lah. Just wait since already contacted bank and police. Since its friends fault, then have to suffer by waiting for the money to come back lor. You have to "pay" for the mistaken.

 

[ghregular]

if its a person i transfer to i will send a small amount followed by balance

CSB lah… which person will Paynow $10k without checking if it’s the correct recipient ?
