It doesn't cost as much as you might think. We used to have this shifty guy, signed up on a mobile contract and racked up $8k worth of bills. Knowing Orange (when they used to sell Optus network) would probably cane us since we processed him so we went and hired a PI and debt collection agency to track him down. Cost us $450 (that was 5 years ago) and we found him, Orange brought him to court and everyone's happy. If I remember correctly, we got that $450 back from him as well as it is cost incurred for recovering the outstanding fee.

Its not over till i get my money back, i doubt that person would be him - doesnt make sense bank being nearly 200kms from the whitepages guys place.

The BSB is where you set up the account so even if he had move his BSB would remain as the Newcastle one.

Dont bother doubting it, give it a try. Could be a bank account he opened there and has moved away since.

Also, I'm not sure how it works with net banking between two independant people but I know with credit cards/debit cards and a business if you have a dispute the bank will immediately return your money and make the business prove that the transaction is legitimate before giving there money back.

all u have to do is contact your bank and tell them you have made a bank transfer by mistake and only found this out recently...what they can do is make a demand letter to this person to return or transfer back the money.---> this is wat i did when i got dodged buying mags on ebay and took me 2 months to track him down... bank would charge you maybe $50 for this request but its worth it.

Police would take a while to sort them out for sure..good luck anyways.

I'm with Westpac. I'll give them a call and tell'em I transferred money to the wrong account, see how that goes. If no luck, ill try police. But if there are any of you out there who can possibly find out who and where he is via friends at CBA, it would be the easiest way to find him.

Mate, you have been given a website that actually states that the account that you sent money into is theirs (ILR). I would be calling them up first and asking for the manager. Also, I don't think that he gave you his correct name.

Ah yes. My mistake. D'oh.

Anyway, I will check that name out for you, allblitz, but I don't think that is his real name. Wll let you know what I find via PM.

Thanks man. Never knew I would get this much response. Thank's to everyone for the help. Lets just hope I can get the $$$ back.
