Stranger Accidental Deposited to My Saving Account

babienn — Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:31:18 +0800

I feel like this topic is at the borderline of kopitiam and financial section of this forum. If I posted at the wrong section please let me know.

I received a call from bank this morning, saying that an amount of cash RM4,000 was deposited into my saving account on 16th August. The bank person told me that it is because the depositor mistakenly keyed in the last digit of my account number, ie. last digit 5 where is supposed to be 2.
Before the banker let me know what to do, I asked the banker to call me back later. After that, I checked my online banking transaction, the date and the amount is valid. The transaction is at ATM, hence showing "cash deposit" description in my online banking. I googled back the phone number and I can confirm that it is the bank branch phone number.

I'm worry this is a scam. But then the transaction shown in my online banking is valid, and the money is not "floating", it is already in my account. I understand that phone number can be changed to make it looks like it is from the bank, but the banker said I can call back the branch and look for her.

I don't want to cause trouble/inconvenience to the depositor despite it was his/her mistake. But I want to double confirm just to protect myself.

Any chance that this could be a scam? What should be the next course of action in this case? Will the banker asked me to transfer the amount directly to the depositor?

Block a Specific Local Address

babienn — Thu, 22 Dec 2016 08:24:42 +0800

Let's say 192.168.1.1 is my company server IP in the company network. Every time when I bring my company laptop back to my home, when I try to run any software, it will automatically tried to search for files at 192.168.1.1 which does not link to any server in my home network, therefore it slows down the software. Anyway to prevent my company laptop to connect to this local IP address?

A lot of the guidance on the internet is to modify the host file, which only work with internet website with a host name, and not working with local address.
