# What if I send crypto to a wrong address?

After a successful transfer on the blockchain, it is not possible to cancel or withdraw it, but only to contact the recipient to transfer it back for you. If you accidentally transfer to the wrong address, it is only possible to retrieve your assets if you find the owner of the address. Please carefully recall the origin of this recipient address and attempt to recover it by:<br>

1. If the recipient address is your recipient address on another platform: please contact the recipient platform staff for a refund;
2. If the payee address is your friend's payee address: contact your friend to explain the situation and ask him to return it to you;
3. If the payment address is the contract address of a token: contact the project owner and ask if they can transfer it back for you.
