Due to the irreversible nature of cryptocurrency protocols, they can neither be cancelled nor reversed once initiated. In case you end up sending fund to wrong person, You may have to contact them and request for a refund. if you don`t know who the address belongs to, you can`t do anything else to retrieve the funds.
