Binance P2P trading is a game-changer — fast, direct, and flexible. But where there's money, there are scammers lurking. While most traders on Binance P2P are legit, a small group of bad actors are using shady tricks to steal your crypto. If you're trading peer-to-peer, this is your wake-up call.
1. The Fake Payment Trap
A buyer says, “I’ve sent the money.” You check your app — nothing. But they pressure you to release the crypto.
Tip: Never release coins until funds hit your bank account — confirmed and cleared.
2. The Chargeback Con
You receive the payment and release the crypto. Days later, the bank reverses the transfer.
Result? You lose both money and coins.
Solution: Use accounts that can’t be easily reversed or disputed.
3. The Impersonator Scam
Some fraudsters pretend to be Binance support, DMing you with fake “dispute” stories.
Remember: Binance NEVER contacts users outside the platform.
4. Overpayment = Overkill
They “accidentally” pay more than the order amount, then beg for a refund. Sounds harmless? Think again.
They’ll reverse the original payment AND walk away with your refund. Double loss.
Don’t refund anything unless you’re 1000% sure the initial payment is rock-solid.
How to Stay Safe on Binance P2P
Trade only with high-rep, verified users
Always confirm funds before releasing crypto
Keep all chats inside Binance for official dispute support
Turn on 2FA and withdrawal whitelist
Trust your gut — if something feels off, cancel the trade
Final Thoughts
