Nedbank
Money Transfer to Incorrect Account

I am a nedbank account holder. I created a link for my savings club called Good Times. It appears that mistakenly deposited R6000 into someone else's account who happens to have a very similar bank account number to the one I meant to deposit into. I made the deposited in amounts of R500, R1500 and finally R4000 all on separate occasions. I only noticed this last week, 2months after my last deposit. I have been to the bank, logged a recall and laid a complaint because I am frustrated. The bank has established that indeed the funds are still in the account I deposited into. My frustrations is, as much as the bank is battling to get hold of this account holder, they can't put a hold on these funds that have been deposited. I fear that the account holder will withdraw these funds and refuse to give me the money back. Can you help me please? All I want it to secure the money. I have applied for a recall at the bank but there is not guarantee. I do not know what else to do.
