Immediately after the incident, Ms. Tham contacted both banks and found out that the owner of the account number she mistakenly transferred money to was Mr. Tran Nguyen Anh Tuan (born 2000), residing in Hung Yen Nam commune, Hung Nguyen district.
Because she could not find the account owner's contact information, Ms. Thuy called the Hung Yen Nam Commune Police for help. After verification, it was found that the account owner was indeed Mr. Tran Nguyen Anh Tuan, a local citizen. However, this man had been working abroad for about 4 years, and the phone number registered for the balance change was no longer in use.

On the morning of April 22, after completing the necessary procedures, representatives of Mr. Tuan's family as well as Ms. Tham and the Hung Yen Nam Commune Police directly worked with the bank transaction office where Mr. Tuan opened the card and withdrew 400 million VND. The entire amount was returned to Ms. Tham.
