This young man allegedly received 2.5 million into his account by mistake. He then allegedly transferred the money to another account immediately, preventing a reverse transaction from taking place.
The police searched for him while he was in hiding until they eventually arrested him. When ordered to return the funds, he allegedly stood his ground and refused, stating that he would rather be sentenced to prison.
Even when asked to return the remaining balance, he reportedly insisted that he be jailed instead, as he would not be returning the money. How would you have handled that situation if you were in his shoes?.
