A man has shared a dramatic story on X (formerly Twitter) about how he recovered part of the money a customer allegedly stole from his Point of Sale (POS) business.

In the viral post, the man narrated how a customer once scammed his POS salesgirl out of ₦100,000 by claiming he had made a bank transfer that never actually went through.

According to him, the incident happened when the customer came to withdraw ₦100,000 from their POS stand.

The man claimed he had already transferred the money and began shouting that his account had been debited.

Under pressure, the salesgirl handed him the ₦100,000 cash even though no transaction alert had been received.

Before leaving, the customer provided his phone number and an account number. However, the account number turned out to be incomplete, containing only nine digits instead of the usual ten.

The salesgirl did not notice the mistake at the time. Later, when they tried to trace the account, they realised only the last digit was missing.

At the end of the day, the expected ₦100,000 never reflected in the business account. When the salesgirl called the man, he reportedly laughed and then blocked her number.

The POS operator said the situation was painful because the salesgirl earned just ₦15,000 monthly, and losing ₦100,000 would have been devastating for her.

He added that he decided not to force her to repay the money and simply absorbed the loss.

Unexpected Encounter One Year Later

About a year later, the man said fate brought the same customer back to his shop.

According to the post, a woman arrived at the POS stand to deposit ₦80,000 into an account.

When the operator checked the account details, he was shocked to see the name Otokiti Odunayo Babatunde, which he claimed belonged to the same man who had earlier scammed them.

Sensing an opportunity, he instructed his salesgirl to tell the woman that there was a network issue and that the transaction would be processed later.

About an hour later, the woman returned, complaining that the ₦80,000 had not entered the account.

The POS operator then asked her to call the account owner.

“This Is the POS Shop You Stole From”

When the call connected, the man said he took the phone and confronted the alleged scammer directly.

“Odunayo, this is the POS shop you stole ₦100,000 from,” he reportedly told him.

According to the post, the man immediately went silent and ended the call.

The POS operator said that day they were able to recover ₦80,000 out of the ₦100,000 originally lost.

He added that the situation felt like “sweet revenge,” suggesting that the man might have needed the ₦80,000 even more than the money he initially stole.
