They are electronic fund transfers, and the way they work makes it hard to cancel them &#8211; especially for international transactions.<\/p>\n<p>If the funds have already been accepted by the receiving bank (if the money is already in the account), then it&#8217;s impossible to retrieve the payment sent by the sender.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s actually what makes wire transfer fraud so dangerous. By the time you realize you&#8217;ve been a victim of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/how-to-fight-bank-transfer-fraud-effectively-in-your-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><u>bank transfer fraud<\/u><\/a>, it&#8217;s usually too late. Scammers have received the money, transferred it to another account in another country, and disappeared.<\/p>\n<p>There are some circumstances under which you might get lucky.<\/p>\n<h2>In what situations can a wire transfer be reversed?<\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to reversing wire transfer, there are two scenarios:<\/p>\n<h3>If your bank made an error<\/h3>\n<p>If your <strong>financial institution made an error<\/strong> when processing the wire transfer you sent, then you can submit an official request and have a chance of getting your funds back. Wire transfer reversal can happen under these circumstances:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your bank sent your wire transfer twice, in which case you\u2019ll get the duplicate back.<\/li>\n<li>They sent more money than you intended to send. For instance, they sent \u00a3100.000 instead of \u00a310.000. Since it\u2019s their fault, you\u2019ll get the difference back.<\/li>\n<li>They sent it to the wrong recipient or the wrong account. If the bank account information wasn&#8217;t correctly processed by the financial institutions involved &#8211; wrong account number, wrong sorting code, etc &#8211; , it&#8217;s their responsibility to correct their mistake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>If you made a mistake<\/h3>\n<p>On the other hand, if you\u2019re the one who made a mistake, it\u2019s <strong>very unlikely you\u2019ll be able to retrieve your money.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the UK, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/money\/2019\/dec\/07\/i-lost-my-193000-inheritance-with-one-wrong-digit-on-my-sort-code\">a man lost about \u00a3193.000 from his father\u2019s inheritance<\/a> because of one wrong digit in the recipient\u2019s bank account number.<\/p>\n<p>The bank first refused to give him the funds back &#8211; only offering him $30 in compensation while the erroneous payee was doing withdrawals. It\u2019s only when he sued them and the case picked up some publicity months later that the bank turned around and he was able to retrieve the funds.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">While that story has a good ending, it shows how tedious a wire transfer reversal can be when you&#8217;ve made a mistake. In the case of corporations, you probably wouldn&#8217;t want to go public about it, further reducing your leverage.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some cases in which you can ask your bank to reverse wire transfer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Errors:<\/strong> just like the case above, you can always ask your or the other financial institutions to reverse the transfer.\u00a0 Chances are slim, but often it\u2019s your only recourse.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fraudulent transaction:<\/strong> if you can prove it was a fraudulent transfer (and you catch it in time), your bank might be able to help you <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/wire-transfer-fraud-prevention-best-practices-and-recovery\/\">recover the funds lost through fraud<\/a> if the clearing process hasn\u2019t been finalized already. Bank intervention is what saved Matel from losing millions when they fell victim to CEO fraud.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The recipient cooperates:<\/strong> if you\u2019re lucky, the person you wrongly sent the transfer money to might be willing to send them back. However, doing the \u201cright thing\u201d isn\u2019t a trait fraudsters are known for. In case of corporate fraud, don\u2019t count on it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Fraudulent transactions can have a significant impact on companies &#8211; and not only a financial one.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Fraud Flash by Trustpair - The Emotional Toll of Fraud\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vGkNxnwjTKg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>What to do to get a wire transfer reversed?<\/h2>\n<p>If you need to reverse wire transfers, here\u2019s the step-by-step process to follow:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Contact your bank ASAP:<\/strong> explain the situation clearly and ask them to immediately take action to block the transfer. Know that if it\u2019s already been received by the recipient, your chances are very low. But you can still ask them what your recourse is.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gather evidence:<\/strong> from phishing email to the transit number (or your transaction\u2019s reference number), make sure you provide all relevant details. This can include electronic communications like emails, screenshots of text messages, etc.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sit tight.<\/strong> The process of wire transfer reversal can take some time. Correspondent banks have to establish communications and grasp the full extent of situation amidst a sea of bureaucratic and legal regulations.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Can a wire transfer ever be canceled or disputed?<\/h2>\n<p>Traditional wire transfers through banks \u2014 which are electronic funds transfers \u2014 can very rarely be retrieved. If the funds have already arrived in the recipient\u2019s account, then you can\u2019t cancel or dispute it.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, <strong>retrieving money sent via wire transfer is a race against time<\/strong>. With the current push towards <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/instant-payment-methods-faster-but-riskier\/\">instant payment methods<\/a> and mobile banking, sending money has never been so easy. Funds are deposited within 10 seconds or less, making this race very hard to win. For bank-to-bank transfers, the funds transfer can be even quicker.<\/p>\n<p>If you use a money transfer service like Western Union &#8211; which is a convenient way to send remittance &#8211;\u00a0 you legally have 30 minutes to call back your transfer of funds if the recipient hasn\u2019t done a withdrawal.<\/p>\n<p>Note that the outgoing transfer fees for an international bank account can be much higher. That&#8217;s especially the case if you want it received the same day. It\u2019s worth comparing with the wire transfer fees at your local bank, especially to send money in a foreign currency as they\u2019ll charge you on top of the exchange rate.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/the-6-strategies-for-effective-payment-fraud-management\/\">B2B payment fraud<\/a>, fraudsters will likely clear out their account the same day they receive the transfer, making it impossible to get your funds back. If they\u2019ve given false information to their bank and proceeded to close their account, then they become untrackable.<\/p>\n<h2>How to avoid erroneous or fraudulent wire transfers?<\/h2>\n<h3>Preventing mistakes in electronic bank transfers<\/h3>\n<p>Since reversing wire transfers is almost impossible, you need to make 100% sure that the transactions you inititate are correct and all the information is verified.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some good practices that you and your financial team must follow to ensure all the details are correct and lower your risks of financial losses:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Double-check all information.<\/strong> When sending any type of electronic funds, verify every piece of information twice. It is tedious, but it\u2019s worth the effort to safeguard your company. Ideally, you want to ask two different people to check the same information \u2014 applying the 4-eye principle makes it less likely for an erroneous transaction to go through.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Contact the recipient.<\/strong> If you\u2019re not fully convinced that the details provided are correct, up-to-date, or even legit: get in touch with the account holder using the contact information in your database. That\u2019ll ensure you\u2019re not falling victim to <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/vendor-fraud-prevention\/\">vendor fraud.<\/a>\u00a0 In this type of fraud, criminals impersonate your suppliers and send you fraudulent bank account information under false pretenses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Trust your instincts.<\/strong> If you\u2019re thinking something is odd, it probably is. Whether it\u2019s a fraudulent attempt or just a mistake, it\u2019s better not to risk transferring funds to the wrong account. Ask your manager or a colleague for their opinion &#8211; or even better yet, involve your IT security team.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, in the case of elaborate fraud schemes, these protections aren\u2019t enough to ensure bank transfers are done securely.<\/p>\n<h3>Preventing fraud with Trustpair: <strong>ensure you&#8217;re always sending money to the right account<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/fraud-prevention-software\/\">Using fraud detection and protection software like Trustpair<\/a> is the best measure against fraud. Trustpair automatically and continuously checks your suppliers\u2019 bank details through <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/automated-account-validation\/\">automated account validation<\/a> before wiring money \u2014 even if it\u2019s a recurring payment.<\/p>\n<p>This protects you against <strong>international wire transfer scams<\/strong> as well as those initiated domestically.
