Lost $250 in a P2P Scam – Don’t Let This Happen to You 😞

I never imagined I’d fall for it… but I did.

I was trying to sell USDT through P2P. The buyer sent a fake payment screenshot, and I mistakenly released the crypto. Moments later, I realized no funds had actually arrived. 🥲

🚫 The buyer disappeared.

🚨 I reported it instantly, but it was already too late.

Here’s what I painfully learned:

❌ Never release your crypto until the payment is fully verified in your bank account.

✅ Always confirm the sender’s name and transaction timestamp.

🧠 Don’t trust payment screenshots — check directly in your banking app.

Please stay alert. Even seasoned traders can get caught off guard.

If this post saves even one person from making the same mistake, it’ll be worth it
