A:
Firstly, it's important to remain calm and focused on resolving the situation promptly. Contact your bank immediately and explain the mistake that occurred with the deposit. Provide them with all relevant details, including the incorrect account information that was used for the deposit and any efforts you've made to rectify the error.
If the girl you accidentally gave the account information to was initially trying to help you recover the money, consider reaching out to her again and explaining the urgency of the situation. Try to communicate directly with her and express the importance of her assistance in resolving the issue before the deadline set by the bank.
In the meantime, continue to work closely with your bank to explore all available options for recovering the funds. They may be able to initiate a trace on the deposit or provide guidance on additional steps you can take to expedite the process. Remember to keep track of all communication and documentation related to the incident, as this information may be useful in advocating for the return of your money.
