μή τινα ὧν ἀπέσταλκα πρὸς ὑμᾶς, δι’ αὐτοῦ ἐπλεονέκτησα ὑμᾶς?

Paul is using the question form to deny that any person he has sent to the Corinthians has cheated them. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a negation or an exclamation. Alternate translation: [I have not taken advantage of you through anyone whom I have sent to you!] or [There is no one whom I have sent to you through whom I took advantage of you.]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
αὐτοῦ
him
Although the term him is masculine, Paul is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Most likely any person whom Paul sent would be a man, but Paul is not making this claim. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: [him or her]
12:16-18 Some of the Corinthians still believed that Paul had deceived them by trickery. They might have insinuated that Paul was helping himself to the proceeds of the collection for the Jerusalem church (chs 8–9). The answer to this charge is a reminder of the integrity of Titus and the other brother (see 8:18-24). The integrity of Paul and his associates should debunk such false charges.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
