I Got Scammed on Binance P2P – Please Be Cautious
Here’s my story as a warning for others:
As a beginner on Binance, I sold $630 worth of USDT to a user named "24tranders". The buyer sent around PKR 265,000 to my two Pakistani bank accounts, but the transactions came under three different names.
Later, I discovered the harsh truth — those payments were made using hacked bank accounts. The real account holders filed complaints with the FIA, and now my bank accounts — holding about PKR 800,000 — have been frozen as part of the investigation, which seems like it could go on indefinitely.
I contacted the bank to find out who the investigating officer is, but they haven’t received any update from the FIA yet. I’m desperate to recover my money.
My advice to fellow traders:
Only trade with Binance P2P users who have a Verified Badge
Ensure the profile shows "Security Amount Deposited"
The name on Binance should exactly match the bank account used for payment
Sadly, I have the phone numbers of the three senders, but they think I hacked them, accusing me of stealing their credentials and OTPs.
Please spread awareness. If anyone knows how to resolve this or has contacts who can help with FIA cases, I’d really appreciate your support.
