@alexej996 I am still a bit insecure about this subject. On another thread is was suggested that if money was deposited from a fraudulent account, there was potential for a bank to freeze my bank account and ask questions 😬 !!!

If you or anybody else who is fully in the know regarding this has a bit of time, it would help a lot if the support board had a pin about the types of exploits scammers use, the risks involved and how to avoid. I can then judge for myself when a typo is a typo or a risk.

If this is a more measurable metric @christoph , maybe the software could make the call before payment is confirmed by requiring you to type in the depositers name, exactly as it appears on your bank statement.
