Couple of points:
"Extra" money doesn't just appear in the bank out of thin air. The transferred money came out of somebody's account.
Your bank can't trace the transaction without the transaction number since the transaction isn't tied to your account. (Theoretically they could search for payments to your credit card company within a date range ...

Banks did not get rich by losing a few pounds here and there on a customer's account!

Your credit is done, any job ...

Can I run an advance-fee fraud while shifting all liability to lonely,
high, horny, and bored social media users with just two photos from a
model?
Yes.
To answer your other question about what to do if you have already been caught up in this, all you have to do is stop messaging them and don't do anything else. There is no ...

It's extremely likely it is just a "stupid marketing question". In this case, answer No and that's it. (For example, in many countries now when you're at a chain store buying a t-shirt or lipstick, when you are paying they say "What is your phone number?" I always say "I do not give it out.")
There is a (very) small chance ...

WHAT? Rs. 9,500 that's too much.
The RBI has made it clear through a circular issued in 2014 that accounts of all student beneficiaries under the various Central/State Government Scholarship Schemes should be free from restrictions of minimum balance and total credit limit.
You may open a ‘Basic Saving Bank Deposit (BSBD) account’, that provides normal basic ...
