🚨🚨 WARNING ABOUT P2P SCAM ON BINANCE 🚨🚨
💸 A real case from Pakistan that shook the entire community!
👉 A trader sold 700 USDT (~205,000 PKR) through Binance P2P.
👉 The money appeared in the bank account.
👉 But just 10 days later, the bank locked the account, holding all the funds.
👉 The buyer disappeared, leaving only a single line 'dispute chain' on WhatsApp.
📉 Result: This trader is stuck in a 'suspended' state, despite having enough evidence: CNIC, statements, chat logs, and an official complaint.

⚠️ Common P2P scam tactics:
1️⃣ Fake payment screenshots → Edited pictures/sms to deceive into releasing coins.
2️⃣ Payments from third parties → Can be reversed by the bank at any time.
3️⃣ Reversal scam → After the coins are released, the buyer reports 'wrong transfer' → the bank locks the seller's account.
4️⃣ Pressure tactics → Urging 'release immediately' to exploit panic.
🛡️ How to protect yourself:
✅ Only release coins when the money has actually entered your real account.
✅ Do not accept third parties – only accept from verified buyer accounts.
✅ Always trade & chat on Binance P2P – absolutely do not go outside WhatsApp/Telegram.
✅ Prioritize reputable buyers/sellers with high ratings.
✅ Keep all evidence: chats, statements, transaction IDs.
✅ Don't let yourself be rushed – safety is more important than speed.

📊 Heartbreaking reality:
👉 In 2024: Over 11,000 bank accounts in Pakistan were locked due to P2P scams.
👉 In 2025: A time to be more cautious than ever – always TRUST LESS, VERIFY MORE.
⸻
⚡️ Final reminder:
👉 Don’t lose everything just because of a moment of carelessness.
👉 Trade smart, protect your own wallet.
