The market is adjusting, but in P2P, tricks are booming.
1. Unusual buying/selling price gaps
• Many USDT coins are currently experiencing significantly higher spreads than normal.
• For example, when you buy USDT:
• Buy USDT: ~26,450 - 27,450
• But When Selling USDT: ~25,280 - 26,280
=> Users easily 'buy high - sell low' in just a few minutes if they do not pay close attention to the price table.
2. Many strange accounts appear, fake reviews
• Scammers often create new accounts, pre-load coins, and run ads with 'surprisingly good' prices.
• Rated 5 stars overall but lacking real comments => very likely to be self-interacting bots or clone farms rating.
3. Sophisticated scams: incorrect content transfer, delegation fraud, or reverse complaints
• Sellers are deliberately misreported by buyers => accounts are suspended, stuck in verification
• The buyer requests off-platform support => luring to Telegram/Zalo for 'private price negotiation' => SCAM
• There is a phenomenon where a group of accounts coordinate complaints to lock the accounts of reputable sellers

Recommendations
• Only trade with merchants that have a gold tick or accounts that have executed thousands of real orders
• Read the transfer content carefully, absolutely do not edit
• Do not trade off-platform
• Be cautious of 'unusually good' prices

P2P is a safe place... if you are alert. But if you are complacent, you will lose money because bad actors do not need a rising market – they just need you to be careless.
