💳 Just confirmed the arrival… and then frozen! ❄️

After 8 years in OTC, I thought I’d seen it all. But the truth is — the longer you play this game, the sharper the traps get.

Funds landed → transfer “successful” → next second: account frozen.

My heart dropped. All my calm from 8 years? Gone.

And here’s the thing — I’m not alone. Many OTC traders step on these invisible mines. You follow every rule, and still two months later — boom. Frozen.

Why? The hidden capital chain.

Sometimes funds you receive came from earlier fraud victims. Once they report, the chain leads back to you.

👉 Freezing ≠ crime. If you can prove good faith, you usually walk away. But only if you know how to survive.

⚠️ 5 Triggers That Get You Frozen

1️⃣ Swapping cards too often / logging in from strange IPs

2️⃣ Writing “USDT” or “crypto” in transfer notes (rookie mistake 🚫)

3️⃣ Moving funds the second they arrive — screams laundering

4️⃣ Sender name ≠ card name

5️⃣ Large midnight transactions (2–3 AM = red flag hours)

🛡️ If You Get Frozen

✅ Verify: Real banks NEVER ask for “safe accounts.”

✅ Refund officially: Always public→public with receipts.

✅ Evidence chain: Keep chats, tx records, bank slips ready.

⏳ Best case: 24–72h unfreeze

⌛ Normal case: 1–3 months

⚠️ Trouble: Balance stuck

🚫 Worst: Permanent flag — start fresh
