Citigroup mistakenly credited $81 trillion to a customer's instead of $280 before reversing the transaction hours later, the Financial Times reported on Friday.

The error took place last April and was missed by a payments employee and a second worker before it was cleared to process the following day, according to the newspaper, which cited an internal and two people familiar with the matter.

A third employee discovered the error an hour and a half after the payment was processed; the transaction was reversed several hours later, the Financial Times said.

No funds left the bank and the "near miss" was disclosed to the Federal Reserve and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the report said.

"Despite the fact that a payment of this size could not actually have been executed, our detective controls promptly identified the inputting error between two Citi ledger s, and we reversed the entry," a Citigroup spokesperson stated in an email. "Our preventative controls would have also stopped any funds leaving the bank."

The incident did not affect the bank or the customer, Citi added.

The bank experienced 10 near misses of $1 billion or more in 2024, down from 13 such cases the prior year, according to the FT, which cited an internal report.

I laff when ignorant people here say banker work is becoming useless

No bank or organisation in the world is worth that amount, none can even afford it, the GDP of America isn't up to that amount, the gdp of Europe is not up to it, the gdp of BRICS isn't either

Richest man ever in 1hr.

Unbelievable. How do you mistakenly post 81 trillion dollars? Who even has 81 trillion dollars?

What's the total net worth of citibank? Perhaps, they mean another currency.

Weak chhecks n balance in place lol.

That they have that much money in their coffers is truly commendable. I’m blown away

Wao! That's a scary lot of money.

They used to be the biggest financial institution in the world few years ago. Am not sure if they are still occupying that position.

I went to their branch at Oba Akran, Ikeja, some years back to open an , and they declined my application. I asked one of their employees, and he signaled something like salary range.

If you weren't earning like 800k per month or so, and they'll check your employers' profile too. Becoz I was not owing any bank.

I used to see them at Chevron offices, Exxon and P&G etc. Those guys are not desperate at all. Very selective and they basically deal s of multinationals.

That customer should just use $1 Trillion to buy Nigeria and pay us all our share.

That's huge.
