Be careful with your blockchain transactions

[CryptoAssasin]

I cant believe that this person sent 0.1 Ether with 2,100 Ether transaction fee. I am pretty sure that this person is crying out right now and just shaking his / her head repeatedly. What will you do if this happens to you? How will you comfort your self at a time like this? 2,100 Ethereum for transaction fee really is a big amount and unfair on that person but a mistake was already made. I hope that he can contact the miner who processed that transaction for reimbursement which is I think possible. Look on the reference below.

This is a very old news lol
And I don’t think it was a mistake because the same wallet did it 3 times
Simply use imtoken always, it uses the best and standard gas for you any time

It has happened somedays ago. I didn't track the event though. Sparkpool has said to refund it to the owner if he claim. Don't know what happened later. Hope for the betterment. Some said, he intentionally sent it as a reward to the miner.

This mistake looks very strange imho. How can this be possible?
This guy must be blind, guided by this miner - this is the only possible case here I assume

I've recently seen discussion on Reddit about that, this wasn't done by accident.
https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/asapta/someone_just_paid_2100_eth_for_transaction_fees/

The jury's still out on why someone would do this, but I'm sure there's some explanation behind it.
Someone in that reddit thread mentioned possible money laundering, but I'm not sure how that would work.

[Levyathan]

That was a long day ago since there are some threads which already discussed, but I think its useful to remind someone to keep seeing the price fee before confirming to send.

[slaman29]

OP, you really need to catch up with the times. Think we can all safely say for now, it wasn't a mistake. Because as it has happened with Bitcoin before when making an expensive fee by mistake, the sender has asked for help. In fact, in the past, Bitcoin miners have returned the mistaken fees, you can google it to read more about it.

So many errors in transactions, people keep doing, but it's rarely the fee.

Not that old news I guess. They say it's programming error and not a mistake while the fund was freeze until the sender claim it.

Likely, money laundering issue is out here

I've read someone on twitter and said that it was like that but I can't understand either on how it should work.

Intentionally sent it? That person must be in serious cash to send such amount of money. Infact, reward for what is he giving the miner? Somethings are just difficult to comprehend in this life.

It reminds me of a news program in my country, a few weeks ago.

A man gets into a tunnel with his car. When entering a flashlight attracts attention. The driver was curious ... He came back from the first roundabout and entered the tunnel again. Flash still there! The man was getting greedy and came again third times and the flash was still there. A few days later, they sent three traffic tickets to the man's house because speed limit it tunnel:)

In this friend he succumbed to his curiosity and he may have sent by paying high transaction fee again and again.

[Imoote]

It is very unnatural that the fee is that much, honestly I have never seen it all this time, if this has happened it will be very severe in the future, hopefully this can be overcome as soon as possible because it is an unreasonable fee, if I think.

[othell_rogue]

It happens, I know that this mistake happened to a BTC sender too, in 2016 someone paid 219 BTC fee to send 0.001 BTC. So sh*t really happens...

[patz22]

Thats very unfortunate, well if that happens to me I would feel frustration as well. See, blockchain tech is very good and being anonymous would be one of the good thing about thing and much faster but still there is no perfect system at some cases there are still mistakes or glitches.

[GREENch]

Most likely the transaction was made in a hurry and for this reason he was wrong. But I doubt that miner will decide to help this poor fellow.

[Peterdav]

Before making a transaction, first thing you should do is check the gas and fees. That will prevent you from mistakes.

It has already posted in the forum a while ago and I find it suspesious whether it's coincidence or a planned mistake. No person in their sanity would do such kind of transactions if nobody takes benefit from that.

Yes. Caution is the only option as there are nearly no way to solve any problem you make on a transaction.
I too remember making a mistake of sending $100 worth of bitcoin twice to a single use address. And bitcoin was about $200 a piece at that time.
Never got that back but I started checking every detail at least twice before pressing that button.

I have seen this problem since 10 days ago. And I believe this is just a small incident from someone. No one is stupid enough to adjust gas fees like that

In block chain you must be careful with your transaction. If by any chance you send money to a wrong person the it's hard to get your money back. Infact you won't get your money back. So be careful.
