đ¨ P2P Scam Alert!
On 5th October 2025, I fell victim to a P2P scam while selling $USDT on a popular platform. A buyer contacted me, claiming to be a verified merchant. He sent the payment to my bank account, and I received an SMS confirmation. However, just before I released the crypto, the buyer cancelled the order and reported a fake payment issue to the platform. đł
To my surprise, the bank transaction was reversed, and the buyer disappeared with my crypto. It turned out that the buyer was a scammer using a third-party account.
*Lesson Learned:*
1. *Wait for payment settlement*: Don't release crypto until the payment is fully settled in your account.
2. *Verify buyer authenticity*: Even with verified badges, scammers can exist. Be cautious and verify the buyer's identity.
*Pro Tip:*
Keep an eye on $SOL , it's showing strong potential! đ
*Stay Safe:*
Don't let scammers take advantage of you. Always prioritize caution and verify transactions thoroughly. đ
