🚨 Important Alert for Crypto Users in Pakistan 🚨
⚠️ Stay Cautious! Your bank account could get frozen because of crypto activity — here’s how and why.
💥 “Chain Dispute” Scam on the Rise
In this scam, a fraudster sends stolen money to a crypto trader, then reports it as stolen to the bank. The bank doesn’t just freeze the scammer’s account — it also blocks the trader’s account and any related accounts. This “chain dispute” causes multiple accounts to be frozen without warning.
🏛️ Regulatory Uncertainty
Since 2018, the State Bank of Pakistan has discouraged crypto use, but there are no clear laws. Banks treat crypto transactions as suspicious and may freeze accounts suddenly.
💬 Real Stories From Users:
“I sold crypto and got a call saying my bank account was frozen due to a flagged transaction.”
“After a small P2P trade, my account was locked because of a ‘disputed payment.’”
🧠 What You Must Know:
You can get your account frozen even if you’re not involved in scams—just receiving money linked to one is risky.
Lack of legal protection means banks act fast and cautiously.
✅ How to Protect Yourself:
• Use a separate bank account for crypto trades (try SadaPay for safer P2P).
• Always save transaction proofs like screenshots and chat logs.
• Only trade with trusted buyers/sellers and reputable platforms.
