The strangest and most expensive transfer mistakes in the history of digital currencies! 🤯💰
Imagine waiting for a refund of a small amount—no more than $70—only to open your bank account and suddenly find more than $7.2 million inside it! This is exactly what happened to an Australian woman named “Thivamanoghari Manivel” in a case that turned into one of the most famous legal stories in the crypto world.
🔍 How did this disastrous mistake happen?
The story began when the well-known Crypto.com platform tried to refund an amount of just about $70 to “Manivel.” Due to an unexpected human error, the bank account number was entered in the “transfer value” field! With a single click, the ordinary account turned into a fortune.
⏳ What’s strange is that the company didn’t discover this major error until seven full months had passed during its routine account review. But by then, Manivel had already handled the money quickly and intelligently:
She transferred a large portion of the millions to other accounts.
She bought a luxury mansion and a massive property in the Craigieburn area and hurried to transfer ownership of the property to her sister, “Thilaghavathi Ganngadory,” in an attempt to protect it.
⚖️ The law doesn’t protect the careless
Technological and human errors can happen even on the largest global financial platforms. One mistake in the fields can cost millions of dollars and change people’s lives
