Imagine you find a cryptocurrency sale at a great price... You contact the seller, they send you proof of payment, you're excited, you confirm receipt... and suddenly you discover the money never arrived in your account! 😱

⚠ How does the nightmare begin?
The scammer appears to be a normal, trustworthy person.
They send fake proof of payment or use a stolen bank account.
Or they actually pay, then contact your bank to retrieve the money after they receive the coins from you!
