I tried to take a shortcut and paid the price. 💸
Last week, I downloaded a "free trading bot" from a Telegram channel. It looked legit. The UI was clean, and the setup was smooth. Within minutes, I linked it to my Binance account via API — huge mistake.
A day later, all my funds were gone.
0.12 BTC. Gone. Just like that.
The bot had hidden withdrawal permissions. I only realized when it was too late. No customer support. No recovery. Just silence.
I thought I was being smart. Instead, I became another cautionary tale.
Always verify. Always research. Don’t trust random links — no matter how polished they look.
