🚫 My Bank Account Was Frozen — Without Warning!
Just hours after the transaction, I received a disturbing notification:
> ❗ Your account has been frozen.
I couldn’t access any funds. There was no prior warning, no explanation — just a total freeze. I was stuck and had no idea what to do next.

🤔 Why Are Banks Doing This?

💡 How to Protect Yourself
If you’re trading crypto in Pakistan, be cautious:
Don’t use your main bank account for P2P
Keep trades small and spread them out
Avoid receiving large payments from unfamiliar accounts
Monitor your bank activity closely
Be ready to explain transactions if questioned

🧠 Final Thoughts
Crypto might be the future, but traditional systems in many countries — including Pakistan — aren’t ready yet. Until regulations are clearer, we must protect ourselves and stay informed.
