I don't think it is possible since the succession of letters and numbers of address is very precise
Indeed, the probability of a transfer going to an existing address are similar (or the same?) to the possibility of generating an address that already exists. Astronomically small.
Correct.
Your posting settles discussion.
I also heard/ read that people gets coins by mistake some of them received big amount of coins.
But I never get .
When I heard about them I start thinking that one day I will receive more than 10 Bitcoin by mistake but it never happens from, ( still sometime think same from last 2 years)

That means they are lucky bee for the reason received the bitcoin fortunately, sadly I didn't receive any money incorrectly since I am being here in the forum for 2 years.
I believe most luckiest person is who got 10000 bitcoin for pizza at early stage in 2009.
One time I lost bitcoin from my blockchain wallet when trying to google it and get into the site with wallet id and password.
It didn't happen to me & I have never read about that....but am still waiting 
my friend was suppose to send ETH to me for ICO I was on whitelist, but instead sent to EOS ICO.
Luckily he sent from his own wallet and not exchange so he can claim EOS.

For some reason I think people are stupid enough to create alot of new wallets after reading this thread in hope of increasing their chances to get some free btcs 
I wish I did but never, except airdrops.
I always send by mistake. Just today I sent double ether to my friend's address. It was nothing big something like $2 but it annoys me as hell that you can send payment by mistake.

There are a lot of ppl who has sent money to the wrong address. But I curios, is there somebody who received payments by mistake? How much if yes?
what a question that is ! no i did not receive any payment by mistake .yes i also heard from many people who send money to wrong address . really who received money by mistake he is a very good luck man . There are a lot of ppl who has sent money to the wrong address. But I curios, is there somebody who received payments by mistake? How much if yes?
Nope, haven't heard of any. But damn! I would love to recieve some free cash! Hahhaha i mean who wouldn't want to? Lol. But i think it is pretty impossible to happen. Because not a lot of wallet are present today. And each are made to stand out from others. So I really don't think it can possibly happen. Well, unless if the sender makes a mistake in cooy pasting addresses, then that would be possible to happen.
No, not yet but if that happens i would be greatful of coarse. It's a blessing indeed that I never expect. But so far, ah maybe not a chance to happened.

Never But I Wish
None that I know of has ever received a payment by mistake, I'm sure the ones handling the distribution make it a point that they do not mistakenly sent it to someone else though, it might cause them to lose their jobs.

Nah, I never. It is sad to know that there are many people receiving funds by mistake. Actually, I do lose my money due to many mistake. Well, I just wish that the manager will never make the mistake so that everyone can happily receive money

I have a friend which do recieved funds which he didnt expect and as far as i remember it was 0.5 btc back in the past on where the price isnt too high as of now.I know there are lots of people do have this kind of situation on recieving something from those people who do send amounts mistakenly.Well lucky for those people who do got some free blessings,its up to them if they would give it back or not.
The probability of getting funds by mistake to own adress may be calculated from the algorithm, how bitcoin addresses are created and may lay at 1:2^160. The probability of sending BTC to any valid adress by typing the wrong characters even lays at 1: over 4 Billions. So I can't imagine, that we would find here many people, who got funds in that way except by copy paste errors.

yeah my friend not received his reward because dev send to wrong address then dev wouldn't send again to my friend's address i think its so adverseThis is not fair at all. Don't you thin it was scam? It just looks like this. What if that address of receiver belongs to the dev too or to his friend?)) BTW who in 21 century doesn't use copy-paste?!
