Lady jailed after overpaying customer
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a former mobile money operator, Gifty Tetteh, recounted how a court handed her two and a half years imprisonment after she mistakenly sent cash above GHc3,000 (N199,440) to a client.
While sending the amount, Gifty wrongly sent GHc30,000 (N1,994,400) but found out later in the evening when she was balancing her books.
According to her, MTN subsequently confirmed that the recipient had withdrawn the money, but all efforts to get him to return the cash proved futile as he refused to answer his calls.
