This Malaysian accidentally transferred RM1,000 to a stranger, but because she was too introverted, she was afraid to call the bank and report the incident to the authorities, sparking a wave of discussion online.

The woman, @nodrohzomono, shared her story on Twitter, saying, "Lol I transferred RM1k to the wrong account. I am too introverted to call the bank and make a police report. The thing has already happened. Well, let the person enjoy it la. Selamat Hari Raya in advance."
Although it is unknown who the "lucky" recipient is, the original poster's post has sparked discussions among netizens, with some urging her to report the incident, while others have left their bank account numbers, hoping to be the next lucky recipient.
I pernah salah transfer. Actually dua simple step je kena buat which is report polis regarding the detail then call the bank to inform. So dia org akan setel can. Cus mine last time, after dua bulan know know bank transfer balik amount yg i salah transfer

"I have also transferred to the wrong account before. Just follow two simple steps, report the details to the authorities and call the bank, and they will settle it. I received my money back from the bank two months later," said one user.
"I am also an introverted person. I have also accidentally transferred RM200 to someone else. I contacted the bank directly and went to the police station to report the case. Since it was my first time reporting a case, I had to report it twice. I got my money back a year later."
