What's new

Strangest thing happend to me !!!

I've been a banker (not the usual kind - investment banker actually), however, I know very well that recalls aren't made this way via cheques - please make sure that you don't end up in some big shit as normally debits are reversed without any such hassle.


Thanks, I am not aware of bankimg or finance related things, however i collected enough evidences before doing all this. All the phone calls are recorded as well as all the checks and docs are snapped.

Can you please shed some more light on this? AFAIK, nothing really could be done if a deliberate cheque is transferred unless the owner of that account himself wants to give refund?

The probability of this happening was 0.0000040064301, and the probability of this being correct is 0.00000000000000000000032191 . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . and so on.

Get a letter from the branch manager, stating clearly what happened, which should include your cheque numbers as well. If he refuses to give it to you, send an email to the management and write in detail what exactly happened, with one copy CC'ed to FIA, this will get their attention. If nothing works out, if you are NOT in Punjab, contact the Police as well. Remember, you can get out of any crime, even murder, but not suspicion of laundering. Get everything in black and white with full references.

I recorded branch managers calls in which he talked about all this in detail. Then I took pictures of my cheques after signing them along with the cheques originally written by that old man.

I thought that would be enough proof.

I was doing my routine work today when a text message popped up on my cell phone "80,000 Rs has been transferred to your account # xxxxxxxxx by account # xxxxxxxx". 4 similar text messages followed with much bigger payments and within a couple of minutes a sum of 2 million rupees was sitting in my bank account.

I was shocked as hell because I wasn't expecting any such payments. I logged onto my bank's website and checked my account balance, it confirmed these transactions.

I knew something fishy has happened and wasn't sure whether I should tell my mom / wife about this (they usually panic quickly). So I just got myself busy with my work as I was in office and was waiting for someone to contact me on this.

4 hours later, I received a call from my bank. The manager was on line, and he asked me where am I and when can I be available for a meeting. I told him that I'm in office and I'll be free at 7pm. Then he told me about these payments which were done accidentally and a refund is needed. Since Eid holidays are starting from tomorrow so we'll have to do this today at any cost. It wasn't possible for me to leave the office before 7pm so they said they will wait for me even after bank closing hours.

Then I got several calls from my bank. Long story short, they asked me to provide 3 blank cheques so they can use them to refund. I didn't had chequebook with me in my office so they were willing to send someone to my home and collect cheques. When I asked what they will do with my cheques without my signature on them? They said they can refund when they have cheques with them and I can visit them & do the signatures later.

I called my mom and told her about this, the bank representative reached my home, had my mom on call with me, received the cheques and returned. Half hour later I got text alerts that a couple of payments worth a million rupees each were done from my account to account xxxxxxxxxx.

When I reached the bank after my office time, entire bank staff along with manager were waiting for me even though the bank timings were over a couple of hours ago. They welcomed me as some celebrity, gave me all the details. Basically what happened was:

My name & fathers name were exactly same with the actual beneficiary, the bank branch of both of us is also same and on top of that the account numbers of both of us were exactly same except one digit e.g. if my account was 111113111, then his was 111118111 :blink:

The sender was an old man who asked the cashier to fill the cheques for him, the cashier asked about the beneficiary details and the old man gave him the name as well as last 3 digits of beneficiary's account. Since both of these matched my details, cashier searched the details in his system and my account popped up on top.

Anyways, I have refunded the payment without any fuss. After refund bank manager told me that he got the call from actual beneficiary who is asking about my details and wants to meet me to thank. I told the manager to not to share my details with that old man or the actual beneficiary as I don't seek any reward or appreciation for this.



Bottom line, I became millionaire and then back to my normal self within half day.. :lol:
yaar 20 lakh main kya hota hai koi 2-4 crore ki baat karo

That means squat in the court of law. The opposing council will squash your "proofs" with two sentences and one authority. Trust me, the law doesn't work the way you think it works.

You are a nice person my dear but if someone has credited something to your account by mistake then bank can withdraw it any time without notifying you. I am working with a bank and have worked with a bank in Australia. Bank does not need blank cheque to withdraw it.


They said they need blank cheques because they want to close the case today as there are 4-5 public holidays starting from tomorrow. Bank can reverse the payments but that would have taken few days. That's what they've told me.
