I sent BURST to wrong address

3.pasting what she though was the password, but which was instead some entirely different text she had copied after copying her password. Try remembering if you copied something else after your password and before you pasted into the password box.
By the way, are you sure that @qibucks is a lady?
Hope she will find the passphrase in her computer/wherever she saved it.

lol, no I am not sure, but I think @chrispop wrote 'she' in another thread when referring to qibucks. @qibucks If you are not a lady, I apologize for insinuating that you are one! I though I had put 'he or she', but obviously I'm not drinking enough coffee today, I will go stand in the corner and drink some right away.

@bitko yes i am a she..thanks though everyone for trying..just sux that's all so a phantm got donated my BURST Oh well time to let this g..i will get more BURSTS..
-
@qibucks You're welcome. Did you take a look at my suggestions? I'm curious about how you managed to enter the wrong account, was it by typing your password manually and pressing the wrong key, or by pasting the wrong text?
It's cool that you are a she by the way, I think we need more women in Burst!
-
im curious as well as to how you got the wrong address to send the burst. understanding that could make it possible to get the burst back.
-
@qibucks Hey there, could you please give us a hint about what happened, in relation to the last comment by @Gibsalot and I? :) We need closure, hehe.
-
@Njcfamily31907 claimed or unclaimed doesn't change anything, you still need the Passphrase to be able to access it.
-
@Propagandalf I have no idea I just saw the address, copied it and sent the coins from POLO./.I tired everything to try and find it lol.. spaces, misspelling, the lt of my proper passphrase lol noooo idea how i got that addy haha never mind..I will get more bursts from the assets i will buy..,

@qibucks
OK thanks for the info! Here are ten steps you can follow in order to be 100 % sure that you will never make a mistake again with a new account.- Create a new account
- Copy your password somewhere safe (use a notepad text document, or write on a piece of paper)
- Paste your password in the next phase of the account creation
- Make note of your account ID (use a notepad text document, or write on a piece of paper)
- Save your password and account name using the built-in account manager in the All-in-one wallet
- Log out of your account
- Use the account manager to log in to your account
- Verify that your account ID is the same
- Fund your account with a faucet
- Make an outgoing transaction to register your account on the blockchain for security (edit account name for instance)
If you follow these ten steps before funding your account, mining or whatever, you will always have access to the right account. People are still able to make mistakes when they send payments, but at least by doing this you know that you are in control of your own account, thus greatly reducing the failure rate.

@Propagandalf Thank you yes now my wallet has a name as well lol..thanks for the kind help..I love this community!

i have 6 accounts now , i keep a pen and paper logg of the info . only account with copy paste ability on the comp is my main mining wallet. i have had some fun with pass phrases lol. i like to take lyrics from 2 or more songs combine them .. then make some words have capitals and swap in #'s to replace some letters or even whole words. makes it realy hard to hack but can be easy to remember. with a system
