I recently sold $630 worth of USDT on Binance to a user with the username "24tranders." He transferred approximately 2.65 lakh PKR to my two Pakistani bank accounts using three different names. It was later revealed that these funds came from bank accounts that had been hacked. The original account holders filed complaints with the FIA, leading to the freezing of my bank accounts—along with others involved. The investigation is ongoing and may take a long time to conclude.

I currently have around 8 lakh PKR locked in those accounts and am desperate to recover the funds. I asked my bank for the name of the investigating officer, but they haven’t received any information from the FIA yet.

To others involved in P2P trading: always make sure the buyer’s Binance account has a “Verified Badge” and displays “Security Amount Deposited.” Also, ensure that the name on the Binance profile matches the name on the bank transfer.

I still have the phone numbers of the three individuals who transferred the money, but they believe I hacked their accounts using their passwords and OTPs.
