🚨 P2P Scams & Bank Freezes – What Every Binance User Must Know 🚨

Binance P2P is one of the most popular ways to trade crypto in Pakistan, fast, direct, and bank-to-bank. But with its rise, scammers are getting smarter, and banks are increasingly freezing accounts linked to suspicious activity.

⚠️ Scam Tactics to Watch Out For

1. Fake Payment Proofs – Screenshots that look real, but no money ever lands.
2. Third-Party Transfers – Buyers using someone else’s account.
3. Chargebacks – Fraudsters reversing payments after trades.
4. Off-App Deals – Shifting to WhatsApp/Telegram = instant red flag.

🚨 Why Banks Are Freezing Accounts
Pakistani traders are reporting more blocked accounts. Common triggers include:

* Sudden, high-volume transfers.
* Payments from accounts not matching the buyer.
* Suspicious activity flagged by compliance systems.
* Banks still treating crypto-related transactions as “grey area.”

Once flagged, banks can freeze your account until you justify every transfer , stressful and time-consuming for active traders.

✅ How to Trade Safer on Binance P2P

* Stick to verified merchants only
* Accept payments only from the buyer’s own account
* Keep transfers within reasonable limits.
* Never share OTPs, CNICs, or passwords.
* Always use Binance’s dispute system if something feels off.

💡 Final Takeaway:
P2P in Pakistan is growing fast, but so are the risks. Scammers are active, and banks are watching closely. Stay sharp, avoid shortcuts, and always trade with caution.
