A common scam is to venmo someone money and then ask them to return it. They do and then they get debited again because it turns out the initial payment was fraudulent.

"Payments from Strangers
Details:

A stranger may send a payment to you, then contact you to say they sent it by mistake

They will then ask you to send the money back as a new payment

How to avoid this scam:

It’s best not to exchange payments with people who you don’t know 
If you don’t know the person who paid you, you should contact us as soon as possible so we can help reverse the payment 
To help prevent this from happening in the future, we recommend blocking users who send unsolicited payments or requests"

It sucks for OP, but if I got money, I would never just return it. I'd contact my bank and let them deal with it. [/quote]
