Nigerian Man Returns N150 million Wrongly Paid Into His Account
Michael Asemota expatriate in Qatar became a millionaire for several hours after a bank mistakenly deposited more than QR1.5 million ($411,127.99) into his account.
He had opened an account with a cheque of QR150,200 with an undisclosed commercial bank, where heis the sole signatory of the account.
As he got back home, he received an alert showing that a QR1,502,000 had been credited into his account by mistake instead of QR150,200. Asemota went back to the bank and returned the money.
Asemota said,
I knew the money did not belong to me and
shouldn’t be in my account in the first place, so there were no motives and temptations to keep it.
