A Nigerian lady named Mayowa Sam recently shared a heartwarming experience she had when a woman mistakenly transferred N95,000 to her account. Mayowa recounted that she was in the middle of watching a movie when she started receiving persistent calls from an unknown number. Curiosity got the better of her, and she eventually answered the call, only to be greeted by the sound of a woman sobbing uncontrollably.
Concerned about the woman's distress, Mayowa inquired about the reason for her tears. The woman tearfully explained that she had accidentally credited N95,000 to Mayowa's account and desperately pleaded for a refund.
Without wasting any time, Mayowa checked her account balance and confirmed that the money had indeed been deposited into her account. Realizing the gravity of the situation, she promptly initiated the refund process, ensuring that the woman received her money back. Grateful for Mayowa's kind gesture, the woman called back to express her gratitude and offer prayers in return.
Overwhelmed by the unexpected turn of events, Mayowa took to Twitter to share her experience. In her tweet, she expressed her reluctance to answer calls while watching movies but felt compelled to answer this particular call. She recounted the emotional conversation with the woman who confessed to mistakenly sending N95,500 to her Opay account. Mayowa, after verifying the details, discovered the funds had been sitting unused in her account alongside her existing balance of #429 (as she rarely used her Opay account for transactions). Without hesitation, Mayowa promptly refunded the money, and the woman expressed her gratitude through a prayerful phone call.
Since sharing her story on Twitter, Mayowa has been met with an outpouring of appreciation from Twitter users who have applauded her for her kind and compassionate gesture.
Accompanying her tweet was a photo of Mayowa's account statement, validating the incident and highlighting the refund transaction. The online community has been touched by Mayowa's act of honesty and empathy, serving as a reminder of the power of compassion in our interactions with others.
