FollowIn a bizarre incident straight out of a fantasy, a Class 9 student from Muzaffarpur, Bihar, experienced an extraordinary moment when an astronomical amount of Rs 87.65 crore was found in his bank account. Saif Ali, who had only planned to withdraw Rs 500 for his daily needs, was left stunned when the balance on the computer screen at a local cyber cafe revealed the staggering figure.
The incident unfolded when Saif, accompanied by the cyber cafe owner, repeatedly checked the account balance to confirm the surreal amount. Convinced of the shocking discovery, Saif immediately informed his mother, who shared the news with other villagers. The news quickly spread, leaving everyone in the village amazed at this unexpected turn of events.
However, the moment of sudden wealth proved to be short-lived. A visit to the bank revealed that the balance had mysteriously reverted to Rs 532, and the account had been frozen. Saif and his family, bewildered by the turn of events, approached bank officials, who confirmed the corrected balance but failed to provide an explanation for the earlier error.
For a brief five hours, the young boy unwittingly held what seemed to be a fortune, only for it to vanish without a trace. The North Bihar Gramin Bank, where Saif’s account is maintained, has since launched an internal investigation to determine how such an enormous sum was erroneously credited to his account.
Suspected Cyber Fraud
Cyber DSP Seema Devi commented on the incident, noting that such cases are not uncommon and often involve cyber fraud. While fraudsters may have exploited Saif’s account for illegal activities, no formal complaint has been lodged by the family with the cyber police station.
The bank has refrained from making any official statements regarding the source of the erroneous transaction, and the matter remains under investigation. The incident has left the local community both astonished and amused, becoming a topic of widespread discussion.
For Saif Ali and his family, the surreal experience is one they will not forget anytime soon. While the windfall disappeared as mysteriously as it appeared, the story has become a legendary tale in the village, a testament to life’s unpredictable twists and turns.
