๐จ P2P Scam Warning for Pakistani Traders ๐จ
I want to share something important from my own recent experience so no one else falls into the same trap. I was doing a P2P trade on Binance for 700 USDT (around PKR 205,000). Everything looked fine โ I received the payment and released the crypto. But after 10 days, my bank account got blocked! ๐ณ
The reason? A โchain disputeโ was filed on that transaction. My bank didnโt explain much and refused to share details, which left me totally stuck.
Hereโs what actually happened:
๐ The scammer used a third-party bank account to send the money. This is a major red flag and creates legal trouble for the receiver.
๐ Banks donโt always give full transparency, which makes it harder to prove your side without evidence.
๐ก What I learned (and what you should do too):
Donโt ever accept payments from someone elseโs account. The bank account name must match the verified name.
Use a separate bank account only for P2P trades to reduce risk.
Withdraw funds quickly after receiving them. Donโt let money sit in your P2P account.
Save everything โ screenshots, chat logs, even CNIC if possible.
If something goes wrong, report it with evidence to the FIA Cyber Crime Wing.
P2P trading can still be good, but scams are growing. Stay sharp, donโt trust blindly, and protect yourself. Stay safe traders โ๏ธ
