1 / 2

Nollywood actress Sarah Martins says she mistakenly transferred ₦100,000 to the wrong bank account after having her hair done. She said she copied an account number displayed at the salon but entered one digit incorrectly. The money was sent to a different account because she did not confirm the recipient’s name before completing the transfer. Martins described the experience as painful and urged people to always verify account names before sending money.

Displaying an account number at a salon does not remove the sender's need to confirm the name before completing a transfer.

Always pause at the confirmation screen, compare the account name, and save trusted salon details after a successful payment.
