A scammer deceived my follower and transferred his 18,000 USDT to their Binance account.
He was tricked by a person impersonating the official support team of IOTX. Unfortunately, he gave them his private key (that was a huge mistake). Four days later, this person stole 18,000 USDT from his private wallet when he had transferred it from Binance to my wallet.
Fortunately, he immediately contacted Binance and had this scammer's account frozen. He is now in continuous contact with Binance and also seeking help from the police.
He has this evidence:
Binance's USDT withdrawal history, which went to his private wallet
The link to the chat where they deceived him
The scammer's real identity (name, phone number, social media, etc.)
This is not a fake identity but a real one. This person was caught two years ago in their country for a similar internet fraud crime.
Now they are claiming on their Twitter that they are innocent and trying to unlock their Binance account, but they are unable to prove where the funds in their account came from because there has never been any connection between his wallet and their wallet.
How to avoid being scammed?
Simply don't share your private keys with anyone means anyone and don't open unnecessary links sent from unknown numbers...
