Some random person sent me $117 via Venmo
It was a few days ago, and there have been no follow-up emails or texts or anything, so I don’t *think* it’s a scam
I think it was likely a mistake — they paid the wrong person
I don’t see any way to message someone with Venmo …
I guess the best thing to do is just pay them the money back?
Is there some possible scam here that I’m missing? Is there a way to message someone on Venmo?
