A woman is asking for help after she mistakenly transferred ₦450,000 to a dispatch rider while trying to pay a ₦4,500 delivery fee.
According to her, she ordered an inDrive rider on Monday to deliver a package to her customer. While making the payment, she accidentally sent ₦450,000 instead of the agreed ₦4,500.
She said she has since been trying to reach the rider and recover the money, but things have become complicated. She contacted inDrive and her bank, while her bank reportedly reached out to OPay because the receiving account was an OPay account.
The woman said she has also made several attempts to speak with the rider, but his explanation has left her confused.
In a post she shared, she said:
“On Monday, around past 12, I ordered an inDrive rider to deliver a package to my customer, and the fee was ₦4,500.
“I mistakenly made transfer of ₦450,000 to this guy, and I’ve been trying to reach him.
“I’ve texted inDrive. I’ve reached out to my bank, my bank said they reached out to OPay because the account number was OPay.
“InDrive have been telling me to calm down. I don’t know what to do. I’ve cried. I’ve been calling him. I’ve texted him. I’ve pleaded with him with everything.
“He said no, that he’s not the owner of the number. His friend used the number to open inDrive. I don’t even know. The story is not joining.
“Please, I’m begging everyone to help me. ₦450,000 is a lot. I have my market to clear next month, and this is the money I’ve been saving for the market.”
She is now appealing for assistance in recovering the money, saying the ₦450,000 was money she had been putting aside for her upcoming market expenses.
