I was scammed on Binance P2P.
As a new user on Binance, I sold $630 worth of USDT to someone with the username "24tranders". He transferred approximately 265,000 PKR to my two Pakistani bank accounts using three different names. Later, I found out that these transfers were made from bank accounts that had been hacked. The victims reported the fraud to the FIA (Federal Investigation Agency), which led to my bank accounts—and those of others—being frozen as part of the investigation. Unfortunately, this investigation may drag on indefinitely.
I currently have around 800,000 PKR stuck in these accounts and am desperate to recover my funds. I’ve asked my bank to tell me who the FIA investigation officer is, but they have yet to receive a response.
To protect yourself, please follow these guidelines when using Binance P2P:
Never trade with anyone who does not have a Verified Badge.
Always look for the "Security Amount Deposited" message on their profile.
Make sure the name on the Binance profile matches the name used in the bank transaction.
I also have the phone numbers of the three individuals who sent me the money, but unfortunately, they now believe that I hacked their accounts and stole their credentials.
If anyone has advice or can help, please reach out.
