Ok yesterday after i found out you could buy your low lvl alts cold weather flyingng skill, I started mailing out 1000g to my 3 alts.

My banker toon is not guided and only has the 3 alts on her friends list.

It unfortunately appears as though your gold was sent to a character with a very similar name to that of your mage, OmnÃus. If you hand-typed the recipient's name into the mailing field, it's very possible that you may have selected the wrong high ASCII "o." If you used the auto-fill option, however, it may be worthwhile to double-check your Friends List to ensure that you have the right JunÃ³ on it.

As the mail has already been retrieved by the character it was addressed to, I fear we may be unable to intervene. I'd encourage you to perhaps send out some inquiries to see if the recipient is willing to return the money and to remain optimistic. I do apologize for any hindrance or frustration this may cause you, though. =/

In the future, as well, specifically with the advent of the auto-fill mail feature, please continue to exercise extreme caution when sending out large sums of gold or valuable items. I wish you the best of luck, OmnÃus, and if there's anything else I could do for you, please let me know.
