Crypto.com Accidentally Sent $7 Million to Customer — Sues 7 Months Later to Get It Back
The Australian Supreme Court of Victoria released a default judgment Friday in a case where crypto exchange Crypto.com accidentally transferred more than AUD$10.47 million to a customer’s account on May 20, 2021. Instead of refunding $100 [Australian dollars] as intended, $10,474,143 was erroneously transferred … to Manivel after an account number was accidentally entered into the payment amount field.
Crypto.com noticed the error when an audit was performed in December 2001 and subsequently filed a lawsuit against the customer and related parties to recover the transferred funds.
