According to the Ministry of Public Security's Electronic Information Portal, in a short time, Mai Chau Commune Police (Phu Tho province) have continuously received and handled 2 cases of people receiving mistakenly transferred money with a total amount of nearly 390 million VND.
Thanks to the quick and responsible intervention of the Police force and the honesty of the people, the entire amount of money has been verified and returned to the right owners according to regulations.
Accordingly, on April 7, Mai Chau Commune Police received a report from Ms. Ha Thi Phuong Thuy (residing in Mai Chau commune) about her personal account suddenly receiving 37.5 million VND from a strange account.
Immediately after discovering it, Ms. Thuy proactively went to the police agency to report and request support for verification. After receiving information, Mai Chau Commune Police coordinated with the bank to conduct a review and verification of the transaction and quickly identified the person who transferred the wrong money as Mr. Nguyen Thanh Nhat An (residing in Lam Dong province).
On that basis, the unit guided the parties to complete the procedures and organize the full return of the money to Mr. An in accordance with the law.
Following that, on April 10, Mai Chau Commune Police received a report from Ms. Kieu Thi Thanh (residing in Mai Chau commune) about her personal account receiving a large amount of 350 million VND transferred by strangers. Immediately after discovering the incident, Ms. Thanh proactively reported to the Police agency for support in handling.
Using professional measures, Mai Chau Commune Police quickly coordinated with the bank to verify and clarify that the person who transferred the wrong money was Ms. Pham Thi Phuong (residing in Thai Hoa ward, Nghe An province). The entire amount was then fully returned to Ms. Phuong to ensure compliance with regulations.
Through the case, the Police agency recommends that when people detect receiving transferred money of unknown origin, they should quickly notify the Police agency or bank to be supported in verifying and handling it promptly, avoiding unnecessary legal risks.
