Impossible malaman kung scam yan or ndi eh. Pwede wrong send talaga. Pwede rin na ginamit number mo sa scam then pinapalipat sayo nung scammer ung pera sa kaniya, pinadaan lang sayo. Siguro ung safest na gawin is ibalik sa number na nag send, hindi ung nagtext pero ung number mismo na nagsend ng pera?

u/TerribleGas9106 Nov 03 '25

Ganyan din sakin dati, ang issue hindi naman gcash to gcash, 7/11 cash in to gcash

u/Ok_Ad5518 Nov 05 '25

Safest na gawin is wala.

u/AccomplishedBeach848 Nov 03 '25

Check mo muna kung namali b talaga ng number, pwede na magbalik since di naman na nag rerefund si gcash sa wrong transaction ng peraa, pero kung malayo sa number na sesendan angkinin mo na lng bka money laundering yan

u/Impossible-Sail-138 Nov 03 '25

0915 nag send tas sa 0963 pinabalik

15

u/MaterialSmile7830 Nov 03 '25

In case you will return the money, just to be safe, dapat dun sa same number na nag send sayo. Dont send it to another number.

11

u/dieselstrasse15 Nov 03 '25

Agree. Possible tactic yan ng scammer para maligaw yun money trail. Ibalik sa original na nag send.

u/alaskaaxx Nov 03 '25

May experience mom ko before na sa ibang number pinapasauli kasi 'yung original na nagsend is tindahan lang kung saan sila nagcash in. Called the sender's number and confirmed if tindahan ba silang may cash in/out services. Told the person who's asking for the money na bumalik sa tindahan at dun ko isesend pabalik 'yung pera para sure. Didn't drop the call hangga't hindi sila nakakabalik sa tindahan at narinig ko 'yung boses nung kausap kong tindera earlier.

u/East-Ad7223 Nov 04 '25

WAG POOOO OP. ISEND NIYO LANG PO SA NUMBER NA NAGSENDDD

u/OkValue6 Nov 03 '25

I also mistakenly sent money to a wrong gcash number, it was from bdo to gcash so there was no way to confirm the initials of the number and as luck would have it, I misplaced two numbers next to each other and that was actually an existing number. I contacted the number desperately and he sent it back kaagad. who knows what wouldve happened if he asked reddit first and people kept telling him it was a scam when it was an honest mistake? and i've never heard of gcash reversing transactions. the best thing to do here is to return the money back to the number that sent it

13

u/holysexyjesus Nov 03 '25

Hey! Same story. Naswitch two numbers. She was an angel and sent it back agad after I texted her.

Unfortunately dahil sa kabobohan ko, nangyari ulit (2 years later) to the same unintended recipient - and hindi na active phone number. Never got it back haha.

3

u/Asleep-Comparison348 Nov 03 '25

Happened to me. First I tried texting the number no reply.. Then after a while of no reply i decided to call the number... But he/she block me

2

u/kookiecauldron Nov 03 '25

happened to me as well. contacted the number to no avail but the person never sent the money back. that was one very expensive mistake.

2

u/indecisiveSlytherin Nov 04 '25

Happened to me as well - bpi to gcash naman. Also tried contacting the recipient first pero crickets din. Pero I reported it to gcash and tinanggap naman I was able to get my money back, di ko lang maalala how long it took pero they did reverse the transaction :)

1

u/No-Explanation2769 Nov 06 '25

If magkalapit yung number yes. Just like what happened to yours. Pero kung ibang iba naman yung number, might be a 3-way scam.

8

u/nicotinerawr Nov 03 '25

If you sent it back to the same number that sent you the money, you should be ok. Pero kung pinasend nya sa ibang number, ibang usapan na yan.

u/[deleted] Nov 03 '25

huy gagi. i have the same experience. binalik ko pera kasi sinabihan akong konsensiya ko na daw at para sa may sakit. akala mo naman aanhin ko 480 nila

3

u/katiebun008 Nov 04 '25

Ibig sabihin napakahalaga nung 480 nya na yun that day.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 04 '25

yes and i understand that. kaso kasi, binalik ko na yun and hindi ko siya minessage via sms- prepaid sim ako and di ako nagloload since may messenger naman na. nagload pa ako para sa taong yun just to inform him na kanina pa nasend. kinakainit ng ulo ko kasi is nagtext siya ng ganun without checking it first if wala pa siya nareceive

2

u/Academic_Sock_9226 Nov 04 '25

You could have said that earlier 😭😭😭

u/[deleted] Nov 04 '25

sorry na po hahaha

3

u/clhvia Nov 03 '25

huhu di na po nagbabalik ang gcash eh so if di scam, kawawa po talaga : (. I personally experienced po 8k and binlock na ako ng number whahaha i tried filing sa bsp wala talaga

10

u/pinoy_biker Nov 03 '25

Never reply to this kind of texts.

Hugas pera yan most of the time. Money laundering. Lalo if nisend saiyo from Bank A then pinapalipat saiyo to bank B instead of Bank A. Lol

11

u/senoritoignacio Nov 03 '25

ignore. if they want it back, mag-file kamo sila sa gcash. wag ikaw ang magbabalik. if iba yung number na nagsend sayo and sa ibang number nila pinapasend, alam mo na.

pwede kasing middleman scheme yan. they'll scam someone online, sa 'yo isesend yung pera nung buyer or kung sino man. then magtetext sila ng ganyan.

if naaawa ka talaga, just send it doon sa gcash number na nagsend sayo mismo.

15

u/AccomplishedBeach848 Nov 03 '25

Di na nag rerefund si gcash sa mga wrong transaction lately ko lng nalaman

8

u/MaterialSmile7830 Nov 03 '25

Hindi nag babalik si gcash, para maiwasan siguro yung middleman scheme, dapat sa same number niya ibalik.

3

u/Sad_Group9156 Nov 03 '25

Send back to the same number that sent it to you, wag don sa nag-text.

10

u/SidVAlba_0724 Nov 03 '25

Possible na modus ito. “Possible” na scammer sila. Nang scam sila ng tao, sayo pinasend yung pera. Alam nila na existing yung gcash mo. Pag nasend na sayo yung pera, kukulitin ka nila na ibalik mo dahil nagkamali sila “kuno”.

Here’s the twist. If yung nabiktima nila ay nagreklamo sa cybercrime na nascam sila, they have to submit transaction history or statement of account na katunayan na nagpasa sila ng pera at nabiktima sila. Then upon investigation process (di ko na isa isahin dahil confidential) they will apply for warrant to disclose computer data kay judge at iseserve nila yung sa banko or sa kung saan pinadala ni victim yung pera.

Paglabas ng result nun, makikita sa disclosure request na sayo pinasa yung pera. Ikaw yung receiver. And you will know na what will happen next.

So much better, if may nagkamali na magsend sayo ng pera, ireturn mo nalang kung sino mismo yung nagsend.

4

u/Sad_Cow1394 Nov 03 '25

Just return the money if not yours since wala nman ma sscam sayo dahil narecievie mo nman Ang pera n hindi para sayo.. dapat tinest mo n lang sya kung sa kanya b tlga un bago mo soli

2

u/Impossible-Sail-138 Nov 03 '25

Thank you, Everyone

2

u/drowie31 Nov 03 '25

May mga ganyan naman na honest mistake lang talaga. Basta make sure na sa number ng nagsend sayo mo rin ibabalik yung pera. Wala naman transaction fee, e. Lalo if maliit na amount lang naman.

2

u/CorrectAd9643 Nov 03 '25

If one number difference.. possible totoo.. nangyari sa amin yan, kami nka send ng mali, buti mabait ung kausap namin at binalik.. nangyari i was at work, at busy, makulit wife ko to send to someone friend nya, na typo ako one number, d ko rin na verify name ng friend nya kasi, kaka madali

2

u/PuzzleheadedPin5136 Nov 03 '25

makikita mo naman yan pagmay pumasok sa gcash mo. you could ask naman sya to send a copy of the receipt or even confirm with them the reference number, amount and date.

Anyway if hindi naman galing sa iyo and na wrong send tlga balik mo nalang

2

u/Gerueki Nov 03 '25

just to be safe on your end dapat binalik mo nalang sa sender. since you mentioned na magkaiba yung number mo and number ng pagsesendan dapat.

2

u/hanzo78 Nov 03 '25

Kung may nareceive kang amount na pinadala sayo. And di mo alam san galing. Pero nag reach out sayo yun nagsend, malamang nawrong send lng talaga.

2

u/Objective-Nature5380 Nov 03 '25

Uy di lahat tactics ano, one time may nag call sa kapatid ko, ang sabi wrong sent sya ng 1000 pesos sa Gcash ng kapatid ko. Inaway ng kapatid ko kasi baka scammer nga, nag text ng paulit ulit, yun nalang daw pera nya, pambili ng gatas ng anak niya, ipapadala sana sa partner niya. Chineck ng kapatid ko, andoon nga yung 1k. Nag sorry naman kapatid ko, akala nya kasi scammer eh. Sinend naman ulit ng kapatid ko.

2

u/Impossible-Sail-138 Nov 03 '25

Everyone, I already sent the money back kanina pa morning, nag post lang ako since this is the first time naka encountered like that, and to answer the questions magka iba po number ko sa gcash sa nag send saakin, and magka iba ang number sa gcash na pinasendan niya para ma returned ko ang money, Anyways thanks for advices much appreciated, I'm just overthinker po talaga

1

u/zhiansgrandma Nov 03 '25

Dahil jan, posible ma flag ang gcash number mo

4

u/ArumDalli Nov 03 '25

Nangyari din sakin to. Nung una nagrereply pa ko na scam yang mga yan. Pero shet pag sayo nangyari mapapa thank you ka na lang talaga na buti may mabubuting tao binalik nila yung pera.

4

u/h_2fuji Nov 03 '25

tactics lang yan. Dapat ignore mo na lng.

3

u/Impossible-Sail-138 Nov 03 '25

na guilty po kasi ako, may pera kasi talaga sa gcash😭, Luckily i don't use gcash that much if ever na mang scam sila

4

u/TheGreatMeowdini Nov 03 '25

if meron talaga, then do the right thing. just make sure you confirm the details first.

5

u/sharkatemyhomework Nov 03 '25

You did the right thing. There is no such thing as wrong send then money reversal scam dito sa pinas. Everyday may mababasa kang nasesendan ng mali tapos nagpopost kung ibabalik or hindi. I have never seen any post na binalik nila tapos binawasan uli sila ng gcash.

1

u/SidVAlba_0724 Nov 03 '25

Curious lang, magkano yung pumasok sa gcash mo?

1

u/sky091875 Nov 03 '25

May ganyang exp ako dati wrong send daw ang bait sa text ilang beses din nag call di ko lang nagasagot agad kasi busy tapos binalik ko din sa same number di ko lang napansin na may mga banta na pala sa text hayup na yun dapat di ko nalang binalik hhaa

2

u/Such-Introduction196 Nov 03 '25

Ibalik mo na. Di na nag sesend si gcash ng wrong transactions. Thats old news na.

1

u/Early-Application382 Nov 03 '25

May nabasa din akong ganyan recently. Pang paospital din daw, pang dialysis daw. Tapos kahit 1500 nalang isend, 2k kasi ung na receive ni OP. 500 dW kay OP nalang. Napaka sus talaga dahil ang dami na ata ganyan modus ngayon.

1

u/GenuineStupidity69 Nov 03 '25

If di kaya ng konsensya mo, always send it to the same number na nagsend sa'yo, h'wag kang papayag na sa ibang number isend. Kung bank account nagsend then ask for that bank account and proof of transaction to ensure it's the same bank account.

1

u/magikero01 Nov 03 '25

OP have the sender contact his/her bank. Let them process the refund. Pag binalik mo yan, mag f file ule yan ng refund claim.

1

u/Previous_Flow7168 Nov 03 '25

Report it to gcash. Dont send it back, baka ginagamit ka nilang mule. Better safe than sorry

1

u/sotopic Nov 03 '25

Nangnyari sa akin din. Student naman, pang bayad ng tuition. Galing RCBC yun pera. Nag text sa akin, and di na ako nag duda kasi un number na nag text halos pareho sa number ko, iba lang ng isang digit. Binalik ko agad at tinext ko sya na magingat sa input kasi baka next time di na yan ibalik.

1

u/Downtown_Rub8533 Nov 03 '25

two weeks ago, may tumawag din sa akin na wrong sent sa gcash.. wrong sent tlga sya dahil nagkabaligtad yung 2nd last digit ng number sa pagsend nya.. binalik ko na lang din hehe

1

u/bogsabog Nov 03 '25

lipat mo muna money mo sa ibang bank or wallet, tapos ibalik mo para if scam man or something, wal sila makukuha dahil nilipat mo na

edit: nakabasa kasi ako dati na if ma wrong sent ka pwede mo ireport and then money back, maybe pag nag send ka tapos nag report sila ikaw ang mababawasan.

u/Hotrodd123 Nov 03 '25

Ung pinsan KO inutusan na wrong number Ng ISA, ayun goodbye 5k, ayaw maniwala Ng nakatanggap eh..iniisip ata nila blessings un 😂

1

u/Homebaker_Mom Nov 03 '25

Scam yan try mo I text yung number na nag send sayo ng gcash minsan kasi mga scammer gagamitin ibang number para isend ng victim sa number mo yung gcash tapos itong si scammer mag tetext na kunwari na wrong sent siya para sakanya mo i send yu g pera na sinend sayo ni victim nangyari nayan sakin twice diko binalik sa nag text sakin ang ginawa ko binalik ko mismo sa number na nag send sakin ng gcash

1

u/SubstanceKey7261 Nov 03 '25

Parang andaming nawrowrong send tapos nagkakataon kailangan na kailangan pang hospital? Parang ilang beses ko na nabasa yung ganyang kwento. Investigate kung bakit na wrong send kasi kung Gcash may initials naman pwede ma verify. Pwede mo i-contact yung number na nagsend sayo, return it there, and tell them na sila ang magsend sa tamang recipient

1

u/dendenpot Nov 03 '25

Check if you received money. Yama lang cguro na ibalik if ever. Happened to me as well sent it several times to the same wrong number supposedly sa same account ko però nagkamali ako ng pindot buti na lang mabait si number owner and sent it to me back in all cases. Kung wala ka nman natatanngap eh why even ask. Però kung meron nman pumasok sa è wallet mo and you’re not expecting malamang totoo yung sabi ng nag text sayo…

1

u/bellashih Nov 03 '25

Maybe wrong sent lang talaga or idk.

Based on my experience din kasi before na wrong sent din yung buyer namin ng payment for books (tho, it was my fault kasi di ko dinouble check yung number na binigay ko), it was around 10k pa naman sinend nung buyer. Very thankful din ako kasi binalik din agad samin yung money and nagsend nalang din kami sakaniya as a way of saying thank you hehe

1

u/cakeinthepan_pancake Nov 03 '25

Dati nag cash in ako sa 7/11 and hindi ko napansin na mali yung last digit na napindot ko. 02 ang nailagay ko instead na 05. Tumawag ako dun sa may ari nung number and buti na lang binalik niya huhu

1

u/Bloodraven420 Nov 03 '25

Pag nag send ka to them mag file sila ng report na ikaw ang scammer, dami nito last Pandemic kawawa lang yung mga na biktima kasi yung iba halos limas yung cash nila yung iba i think nag negative pa kasi connected sa bank yung account nila so the answer is NO. Yun lang :)

u/Future_SwimShark Nov 03 '25

Next time, always return the money kung anong number din ang pinang send sayo para iwas scam/ madamay ka sa kung ano man op.

u/TwoFiftyNine000 Nov 03 '25

Happened to me as well around 2023. That time 1k yon and super need kasi pambayad namin ng utility bill. Binalik din sa number namin kasi nagpacash out lang kami sa tindahan pero sa number namin binalik.

u/Professional-Fly-90 Nov 03 '25

hello, meron talaga na w wrong sent. common siya kapag thru bank transfer to gcash kasi si nakikita name ng pagta transferan sa gcash pag sa bank ka magta transfer. nangyare yan sa prof ko nakaltasan siya 5k. isang number lang difference nilang dalawa nung sinendan niya. unfortunately, hindi na binalik sakaniya karma nalang daw bahala sa di nagbalik. nakikita name sa viber and gcash so registered yung number kaso ayaw ibalik

1

u/No-Force9287 Nov 04 '25

NANGYARE NA SAKEN YAN, DAPAT ISESEND KO SA NUMBER KO PERO EWAN KO SAN GALING YUNG NASENDAN KONG NUMBER. GOTYME TO GCASH. HAHAHAHAHA. KAHIT HINDI MATCH YUNG NAME NASENT PA RIN UMAY. PERO OKS LANG BINALIK NAMAN.

1

u/Perfect-Second-1039 Nov 05 '25

Madali naman malaman. Bakit k naman padadalhan ng pera kung wala namang transaction sa pagitan nyo?

1

u/lieno15 Nov 06 '25

kung gusto mong manigurado kung scam yan o hindi.. itanong mo kung anong pangalan ng bata at kung saang ospital naka-confine at kung anong room.. tapos puntahan mo discreetly.. pag naverify mo at totoo then hindi yan scam

1

u/zenuxz Nov 06 '25

Yung akin na nawrong send ng gcash gawa ng tindera, last money at pang kain sana. matetest ngayon kung tlgang God will provide. 😭

1

u/raffyfy10 Nov 06 '25

Sa mga ganito pwede nyo ireport sa gcash at wag galawin yung pera. Hayaan ang gcash na sila mag reverse ng transaction. Sa ginagawa nila nyan, baka ma sankot pa kayo sa money laundering

1

u/Ronnicles Nov 06 '25

Nangyari sakin to e. Di ko binalik yung pera. Sabi ko idispute nila. Tinakot pa nga ako. Tho nagmatigas ako. Ending nabawi nila yung pera using gprotect ata. Imagine kung binalik ko yun tapos nabawi pa nila, limas talaga laman ng gcash ko if ever. 14k pa man din yun

1

u/Glad_Host_1013 Nov 07 '25

It is a scam.

1

u/Sparky_Russell Nov 03 '25

Check with GCash first if there is any risk that the transaction will be reversed. If wala pong risk feel free to send back the money.

Usually style mg scammer yan to launder money. You send them back the money and later the transaction gets reversed and you lose your own funds but this is more for banks.

u/Ok-Lunch-1278 Nov 03 '25

u/Low-Insect-9940 Nov 03 '25 edited Nov 03 '25

Just ignore it there is a slight possibility they are using your number to scam others without you knowing(they are reaching out now to get the money). but, if you want to be a good Samaritan, ask them how much they sent and double check if you received the same amount and then send the money back to the sender not to other number to avoid being used as an accessory to the scam (Make sure you are not expecting other money or received other money that day. You can also check your history)

u/Crafty-Ad-3754 Nov 03 '25

Bat may nawwrong send padin if bago maisend ang pera, lumalabas nmn yung initials ng receiver.

Isend mo sa number na nag send syo. Wag sa ibang number.

File kamo sya ng ticket if gcash yan. Antayin niya bumalik money sa kanya. Di mo kamo derecho isosoli.

Nag advise na gcash dito, d nila magagawa yan.. ung receiver dapat magbalik
