Qitzur Shulchan Arukh – 179:15
A borrower who came to repay the lender via a messenger, as soon as he gives the money to the messenger’s hand/domain, the messenger acquires the money on behalf of the lender. And if the borrower refrets and wants to take the money [back] from the messenger’s hand and pay him [the lender] later, it is prohibited because he would have it without the knowledge [of the owner]. Also, the messenger may not return them [the monies] to the borrower.
