P2P Crypto Safety: Avoid Pay-to-Canceled-Order Scams 🚨
🔑 Key Takeaways:
✅ Never send payment after an order is canceled or expired.
✅ Keep all communication inside Binance P2P.
✅ If scammed, act fast: document everything & contact Binance Support.
⚠️ How the Scam Works:
Attractive Offer: Scammer lists crypto at a cheap rate to lure buyers.
Deliberate Stalling: Gives wrong payment details or wastes time until order expires.
Fake Urgency: After expiry, pressures you to pay, claiming they’ll "reactivate" the order, sometimes using forged screenshots.
You Pay, Get Nothing: Since the order is invalid, crypto isn’t released.
Scammer Escapes: Pretends to cooperate while withdrawing funds.
✅ Stay Safe:
Pay only within an active order.
Be cautious of too-good-to-be-true offers.
File an appeal if payment is made but crypto isn’t released.
🚨 If Scammed: Contact Binance Support immediately & keep all evidence.
🔒 Final Word: Scammers use urgency as a weapon – stay calm, check order status, and only pay through secure P2P trades.
