I checked the TXID you posted (dd1911398dddf7ffa3a698ad66ceafd17b3002f5fa0d8dfe2734f7fa84eef347), and the output definitely doesn’t match the wallet address you mentioned you shared. Instead, it went to another wallet that has a long history of transactions (as you noticed, dating back to 2020).

This usually happens because of one of these reasons:

1. Clipboard hijacking malware – if your friend copied your address, malware on his device may have replaced it with the attacker’s address before he hit send.


2. Manual mistake – he might have accidentally pasted the wrong address.


3. Phishing/wrong app – sometimes fake wallet apps can reroute payments.



Unfortunately, if the funds went to the wrong address, there is no way to reverse the transaction in Bitcoin. The only practical solution is:

Have your friend double-check his wallet transaction history and confirm the recipient address.

If it doesn’t match the one you gave him, he will need to send again (this time verifying carefully before confirming).

He should also scan his device for malware, because if it’s a clipboard hijacker, the same thing can happen again.


Bottom line: the funds are not in your wallet, and since Bitcoin is irreversible, your friend still owes you the $1,000 unless he can recover it directly from whoever owns that destination wallet (which is almost impossible).
