Hey crypto fam! 👋
Today I’m sharing something that actually happened to me while trading on Binance P2P recently — and trust me, it was shocking! 😨
Everything was going smoothly until...
✅ I did a regular P2P trade on Binance
✅ The buyer sent payment directly to my bank account
🚫 And suddenly... my account was frozen! 💀 My funds were locked. No access. Zero warning!
🧐 What’s Going On?
At first, I thought it was just a technical glitch...
But after I followed up, I found out the truth:
💼 Banks in Pakistan are now flagging Binance P2P payments as “suspicious activity”
📉 Due to multiple unknown senders, high-volume transactions, and chargeback risks
🇵🇰 Plus, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) hasn’t provided any clear guidelines on this
➡️ Result? Your account can get frozen — without any prior notice!
❓ Is Binance P2P Illegal in Pakistan?
⚠️ Not exactly — it’s not illegal, but it falls in a legal grey area
🚫 Banks see it as risky, so they often block or flag it
📌 Even if your trade is legit, your bank might still freeze your account
✅ How to Protect Yourself:
If you’re also trading on Binance P2P, follow these safety tips:
🔐 Only use a verified Binance account
📝 Make sure both buyer and seller are KYC verified
🚫 Avoid receiving large payments from unknown or unverified users
📸 Always save screenshots and payment proof
💼 If you're trading in high volumes, consider using a separate business account
😰 What to Do If Your Account Gets Frozen:
📞 Call your bank ASAP
📝 Provide all transaction proofs (chat, receipts, transaction IDs)
🪪 Submit your CNIC and ID documents
📧 Stay calm, be polite and keep following up regularly
🔍 Final Thoughts: Freedom vs. Risk
Binance P2P gives us the freedom to trade crypto openly 💸
But in countries like Pakistan — where crypto is still unregulated — this freedom comes with real risks ⚠️
So please...
Stay smart. Stay safe. And always protect your assets! 🔐
