Why did woman initially refuse to return KSh 90k? She was puzzled and alarmed by the unexpected windfall. Before she could decide what to do, her phone rang. It was the sender of the money, who claimed he had made a mistake and begged her to return it. He said he was not a fraudster and that he had proof of the transaction. He also knew her full name and account number, which she had never given out to anyone. She wondered how he got her personal details and why he was so desperate to get the money back. She told him to follow the standard procedure of contacting his bank and requesting a reversal. She also decided to notify the authorities about the incident. But that was not the end of it. Why was woman worried? The sender, who identified himself as Ezekiel, traced her shop by searching for her business name on the Corporate Affairs Commission website. He showed up at her doorstep, pleading with her to cooperate. He said he was a gadget seller and that he had meant to send the money to a colleague. Fans Praise Their Looks A week later, Ezekiel called her again, this time offering her KSh 6,500 as a reward to help her out. He said he did not want to go to court and pay KSh 15,000 for a court order to retrieve his money. Brenda declined, insisting that she wanted things to be done the right way. She said she did not want to be involved in any illegal activity or risk being arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. “I don’t want to be arrest over an issue I know nothing about,” she said. When the reporter contacted the supposed owner, Ezekiel, he maintained that it was an erroneous transfer and that he had no ulterior motive. He also defended his actions of tracking down Brenda’s shop and contacting her repeatedly. “Her store is registered with CAC. Her business details are online. That’s how I got the number too. I went to her because it is not illegal to call her or go to her shop,” he said. . When Legit.ng contacted Brenda after almost a year of the incidents, she confirmed that she had returned the money. “I have returned the money after all the standard procedures have been followed. I just want to be on a safer side. I have also closed that account and I am no longer using it again.” Ezekiel also confirmed that he had received the exact amount.
