I got 0.50 BTC in one of my wallet yesterday. I do use [3 different wallet for security and for the purpose od identification]

I can't remember sharing or giving out the wallet ID in question to anyone online.

The account is a new account because i created it recently. I remember meeting some online who promised to pray for my business and finacial need's.

Few days after my encounter with the lady online i found money when coming down from the bus in roma termini. i took the money and quickly ruh to some group of tourist who came down from same bus before me to ask if, by chance they lost something?.. At this point one of them began to search for her money because they where unaware at the point that something is missing. Few second she shouted my money... my money. Then i took the purse with money therein and gave it to her. One among the three ladies suggested to her friend that i need to be recompensated. And immediately the lady squiz some cash into my right hand.

From that moment there has been lot of unsual experience. Has anyone had such experience?


Thanks

I wish I had some one sending me 0.5BTC to one of my wallets. So far I only have had shitty dust payments sent to my wallets. >:(

I had quite a similar experience, not about the 0,5BTC (I never have been so lucky), but about the lady. One day, in June 2015, I found the ID card of a man in a gas-station. I found him and I gave it to him. To thank me he gave me 5€.

I am just curious. Could you share the transaction id of this 0.5 BTC you get. I read something similar, and I want to check if it is the same sender.

surely this is not a collision, but i've always wonder, if there are way to know if a collision happen

because if there are not, then no one will know ever if at least one happened at some point

The only possible thing here would either someone accidentally happen to send funds to your wallet but as you mentioned it, you only created it recently so the only possible person would be the one you met online, in which he said he would pray for your business and financial needs in case you did something generous for him and this is his way of rewarding you back anonymously without giving a hint.

It may also be someone that written an address letter by letter and who did a mistake. Sometimes it can be a simple coincidence :).

No. My answer is no. I haven't had any kind of such experience. And I can tell even that I don't believe in such things (so that was the bitcoin arrived at your wallet which has caused all such "miracles"). In the best of cases, according to me, are a one after ones causalities which can happen very rarely and as such can create the impression a "miracles". For sure you are an Italian ( :) seeing even the name you mention in your post and where I have been to many times) as nationality because they are very superstitious and believers of such kind of things. I have some (and are very good friends) who I have meet during to many various times I have been in Italy for work. And most of them are like you.

There is any miracle. It is only a casuality. But in your case, if the after is better than the previous, can be called without hesitation "miracle". But caused by the case and maybe event from your work or behavior. And not from any kind of divine being.

The only possible thing here would either someone accidentally happen to send funds to your wallet... I'm still thinking about this perhap's i may have given someone the address but, uptil now i can't remember giving out this specific address to anyone.

Just like the other person commented about writing my address on a sheet of paper for someone.. i don't normally write down my wallet address because the code are long & are very easy for someone to ommit some letter's.

Well, Let it be if, that is what 2016 has in stock for me.

Doing good deeds sure has it's good karma. I have like experiences (tho it's no where near 0.5 btc) where I get rewarded maybe it's the goodkarma that is being sent back for doing good in our surroundigs. :)

Praying works. I had a similar experience once in a chat that allows Bitcoins and other currencies tips. I remembered "give and it shall be given to you" and decided to make a tip to active users. Then that unleashed kind of a tip war among users in chat, it was just crazy... and I ended having a lot more coins than I gave in the first place.  :)

That's probably the case! How I wish this happened to me! :D

I think what you are calling a miracle is just someone screwing up in the middle of a transaction as they mistakenly sent money to you when they meant to sent money to someone else. Somehow you were lucky enough to be the owner of the private key, that's all in my opinion.

Hello Maokoto, this was exaltly what the lady i met online told me! "..That i should learn to forgive always and keep giving to people who may not have the opportunity to give back to me...." ..that long lasting success start's with giving...

If you send those Bitcoins back it's pretty much guaranteed that you will never see them again. It's your choice to sent them back or not. Maybe the guy is broke and would really need those Bitcoins, or maybe that guy is a criminal and you got those Bitcoins so he doesn't deserve them back.

As you see there is no white/black situation here, you never know if you are doing the right thing sending Bitcoin back to some anonymous person.

I know how it feels to loss bitcoin due to some of your mistake recently (but i get it back because it was related to bitpay payment). But the situation just after getting my bitcoin lost in thin air without any option to find out to get it back, i was so dispressed and keep on looking at my gmail from my phone even in midnight for reply from bitpay and neteller. But in bitcoin transaction it is hard to send refund, or to find real refund address if you will to refund it. So you are lucky, enjoy others mistake. >:(

So far I haven't had that much luck to one day see my wallet has a nice bonus in it. Being honest is always the best. A very long time ago I found a physical wallet on the streets with around 600 Deutsche Marks in it, yes before the Euro, and I gave the wallet to a police officer. 2 days later the owner of the wallet came to my house and gave me 100 Marks as reward. Nice!

I haven't had any experience with what you're talking about
Doing good and helping out others next to you seems like common courtesy to me
Most people only do good because they expect something in return
Doing something good and not expecting anything is the best thing you can do, most unexpected things happen

You receiving 0.5 btc seems much, someone could have made a mistake with a transaction, so you received it

Sounds like someone made a mistake with their transaction.

I'd return it if I were you, I know if I did something similar I would want the same treatment.

I received some spam, i mean some satoshis some time ago when someone was trying to spam the blockchain, but nothing compare to your amount.


Yep, that's exactly what i was thinking to, someone must be asking to himself where the hell go his bitcoins :P

I had a similar experience but mine happened online. Someone had mistakenly send me some bitcoins worth a few thousand dollars and i thought it was a mistake. He then send me an email claiming that he had send the bitcoins without really confirming the recipient. I replied and told him i will be able to return his coins. I guess he did not believe that someone can do that. When I had finished reversing the transactions, he asked for my paypal id for some token of appreciation.The guy send me a total of $1000.

Once I placed a bet on some event with 100-200 ODDS and was placed just in vain so I forget about it, then one
day when I got up, I saw some 0.91 BTC in my wallet, imagine the happiness !

You better enjoy because it seems you are blessed. I wish I opened my wallet and had some bitcoins there, as I'm going through a financial crysis it would be a real miracle for me!

I also want to be like you . Nothing sends into my wallet . and it's like getting surprize

god blesses you, use them wisely and gain more of them! btw you would need to give out your money for good like donation. :)
have a nice day in the bitcoin world! lol.

Unlikely the addresses have checksums in them and even without that typing a valid address by accident is veeery unlikely.

May be a spam/hack TX that will not confirm or it may be a bad random gen.

Lol, i guess someone made a mistake when typing the adress, to send BTC to, sucks for him :D But no, i havent gotten this luck yet. I did however once sent 0.01 instead of 0.001.

Well, thanks for all your contribution and comment.

2 things where consistent in most of these comment - MISTAKE and LUCK.


Is there anyway of identifying sender email from WALLET ID perhap i can get in contact with the person to thank him/her for the donation? Perhap, this will be a way to find out if, those coins where sent into my wallet by mistake.

Secondly, if is impossible to identify the sender or the sender's email i will have to donate part of that the coin to this forum, use some part of that money to help people [maybe begger's on the street or new babes on this forum who are deeply in need of some help but, the assistance will not be in form of sending money because i know most people are quick when it comes to requesting money. It will be in form assisting struggling new babe(s) with already existing noline biz.

Thank

The ministry of angel are still real today for those who the upright!

I think your just lucky enough. Maybe someone just made a mistake when typing or pasting and didn't double check the addy before clicking the send button. Or maybe that person had a plenty of btc and tipping random user.

You could also try sending a private message through the blockchain to the sending address to verify it if you feel bad.

There could also be a collision, so just to male sure I would not use that wallet anymore for storing any coins.

You are just really lucky. I have never gotten anything accidentally sent to my wallet.  >:( :( :( >:(

You know the address it came from... just send a little back, with a note attached... asking if this person meant to send it to you or if it was a mistake. If you do not receive

anything back, you keep it. If the person sends you another transaction with a explanation, you could decide if it was valid and send it back. The reward will come on it's own,

if you deserve it.  ::) .... I did they same thing with someone's credit card, I picked up and he rewarded me with cash for my honesty.  ;D

Transaction ID or it didn't happen.

Hello Kprawn, thanks for your suggestion. i do as you've suggested perhap's the person might be going through pain because of this mistake..

I'll keep you guy updated about the outcome..

Hi ETFbitcoin, thanks for your comment & suggestion

Maybe the OP should contact the lady to see if the bitcoin was sent by her? Or for other purposes?

nice news, heaven use bitcoins!  8)

Enjoy Mr, is your Luck.
