Australian prosecutors are advocating for a prison sentence for a Crypto.com user who accidentally received a nearly $7 million erroneous refund and spent most of it before the exchange discovered the internal error three years ago. In May 2021, Crypto.com sent $6.86 million (A$10.47 million) to Australian couple Thevamanogari Manivel and Jatinder Singh instead of a $100 refund after an employee allegedly entered an account number in the payment section of an Excel spreadsheet. However, the exchange detected that the bank account did not match the exchange account. So, the exchange issued a refund, but instead of returning the A$100 the couple had attempted to deposit, the exchange mistakenly wired A$10.5 million to Manivel's bank account. Just seven months later, when the exchange discovered the error in an internal audit in December 2021, Singh had already purchased multiple homes and gifted A$1 million to friends. He claimed he thought he had won an "online lottery."
