The story of brothers being lured by USDT prices 'higher than the market' is not new, but there are still too many people falling into that seemingly simple trap. And today, another sophisticated setup is appearing on the P2P tab of the exchange.
📌 A clear perspective:
• A trader lists the selling price of USDT significantly higher than the average market rate
• But if you compare the purchase price of that trader in the adjacent tab → the difference is puzzling
• Simultaneous snapshots show: this is not a market fault but an intentional 'lure'
📉 What is risk?
• P2P trading is not automatic like spot → you can completely face delays, scams, or unfavorable conditions forcing a trade
• In some cases, bad actors can exploit loopholes to take away your account control if you accidentally send money incorrectly
• One click for a cheap deal = total loss, no one can protect you except yourself
🧠 Lesson:
• Unusually high prices are a red flag, not an opportunity
• Don't risk your entire crypto account just for a few extra coins
• Check the trader's profile carefully, active time, number of orders, and completion rate
