🚨 P2P Scam Alert – For Pakistani Users 🚨
Scammers are increasingly targeting Binance P2P and other peer-to-peer platforms in Pakistan. Be alert to these common tricks:
1️⃣ Fake Payment Proof – Scammer sends a screenshot of a payment but no actual money is transferred.
2️⃣ Third-Party Payments – Payment comes from someone else’s account (stolen or hacked). This can get your bank account frozen for involvement in fraud.
3️⃣ Reversal Scam – Payment is made via cheque, EasyPaisa, or JazzCash and later reversed after you release crypto.
4️⃣ Excess Payment Trap – Scammer sends “extra” money and asks for a refund, using stolen funds to frame you.
5️⃣ Bank Account Freeze Risk – If funds come from a fraudulent source, FIA can freeze your bank account even if you didn’t know.
✅ How to Stay Safe:
Always check bank balance in your account — do NOT trust screenshots.
Only accept payments from accounts in the buyer’s own name.
Avoid third-party transactions completely.
Don’t rush — scammers create urgency to pressure you.
Keep records (chat, bank statements) for proof if needed.
⚠️ Remember: In Pakistan, if you release crypto without confirming the payment in your bank, you bear the loss — Binance or other platforms can’t recover your funds.
Stay safe and double-check every transaction! 🔒
