Citi banker who accidentally wired $900 million to wrong company was Wipro employee

In August 2020, Citigroup mistakenly wired approximately $900 million of its own money to Revlon, Inc. lenders, a blunder involving Wipro employees who were managing the transaction. A US judge later ruled that Citi could not recover $500 million of the funds because the recipients believed it was an early loan repayment.

In 2021, a Manhattan federal judge ruled that under the "discharge-for-value" rule, the lenders did not have to return the roughly $500 million that was not voluntarily repaid, as they were not aware it was a mistake at the time.

The incident is considered one of the biggest blunders in banking history

The money men already made their commissions on those loans.  Of course they aren't going to return the money, that's another half billion they can re-lend.
