Not the same, but I once had someone pull back funds on Venmo. The whole thing seemed like a scam though honestly.
They sent me $20, then the next day requested the money back, claiming that they sent it by mistake to the wrong John Doe please return
I thought that was very suspicious at worst, or very careless at best, so I ignored the request in case it was something shady.
They sent another request the next day again, which I ignored.
On the 3rd day, Venmo refunded the $20 directly from my account.
I still think it might have been a scam all along, but I guess I’ll never know. Maybe they are trying to verify active accounts or something so that they can determine who to pursue? I have no idea.
