โ ๏ธ SCAM ALERT: Stay Safe on Binance P2P! ๐จ
Hello everyone,
Please read this carefully โ it could save your funds. ๐
A friend of mine got scammed today while using Binance P2P. He lost his USDT, and it all happened because of one small mistake โ not checking the buyerโs recent activity. ๐
These days, scammers are becoming smarter. They appear legit with verified accounts and even decent ratings, but there's one key red flag:
โ No transaction history in the past 5โ7 days.
If the buyer hasn't done trades recently, thatโs a big warning sign. ๐ฉ
Hereโs what happened:
The scammer placed a buy order, my friend released the USDT thinking it was a normal trade โ but it was a trap. The scammer disappeared, no payment ever came, and Binance couldnโt recover the funds. ๐ธ
๐ก 5 Must-Follow Tips to Protect Yourself:
1๏ธโฃ Always check buyerโs recent trade history (last 5โ7 days)
Low or no activity? Donโt trade! โ
2๏ธโฃ Avoid sellers with newly created accounts or low ratings
Itโs not worth the risk. ๐
โโ๏ธ
3๏ธโฃ Use Binance chat only โ never take conversations outside the app
No WhatsApp, Telegram, or phone calls. ๐ซ๐
4๏ธโฃ Wait to confirm the payment in your bank account
NEVER rely on screenshots. Verify yourself! ๐
5๏ธโฃ When in doubt, cancel the trade
Your safety comes first. Better safe than scammed. โ
