What you should know When you receive money on your bank account from unknown source!

Through an event with a friend of mine who received money on his bank account from an unknown source, I tried to find out the most important thing that should be known and taken into consideration if the same thing happened to me or someone. What should we all realize..?

It’s possible that our friend’s bank account may has been compromised and the unknown source of money is a result of fraudulent activity.

This could be a result of a phishing scam or a security breach, where a criminal has obtained your friend’s personal and financial information, and has used it to transfer money into his account.

It’s also possible that the unknown source of money is a mistake or an error, such as a bank or financial institution incorrectly depositing funds into your friend’s account.

It’s important for our friend to reach out to his bank as soon as possible to report the suspicious transaction and to have them investigate this situation.

He should also closely monitor his bank account for any additional suspicious activity.

It’s also important for our friend to change his login credentials, and any other information that might have been compromised by this scam, to prevent further unauthorized access.

We will tell our friend to not spend any of that money until the situation is cleared, since it might be a fraud, and the bank will ask for the money back.
