If the payee doesn't match the account, it should have bounced back into your account.0

Would the OP be able to go to the police/courts etc to claim the money back? Hopefully it won't come to that at all, but interesting to know what actually can be done in a situation like that.
Yes it would be theft or fraud.
But depending on the sum involved it can cost more to chase it up than to lose the money.
The problem is finding out who has the money - the bank will hide behind data protection and it may take a court order to persuade them to do anything.0
