        About a month ago, I received around 50K in my bank account. At the time, As a student, I was expecting a scholarship payment, so I assumed it was that money and ended up spending it. 

        However, I received my account statement today, where that specific transaction is labeled as the SALARY FOR MARCH. Now Im worried that this might not be my scholarship but someone else salary that was mistakenly credited to my account.

        Also, it’s been around a month and my bank has not contacted me for any reversal of this transaction.

        What should I do in this situation? I want to make sure the money goes back to the rightful person.
