In Pakistan recently, an incident occurred where a person bought USDT on Binance P2P from us. 🏦 We received a CNIC picture and a mobile number from the buyer. 🆔 The Binance name and bank name were similar. 🤔 However, just the next day, our bank account was frozen. ❌

When we reached the bank, they told us the provided purpose of the transaction. We provided the CNIC we received during the transaction and a written statement. 📄 In the statement, we wrote that we provided freelance services like software activation and Amazon gift cards. 💻🎁

A few days later, the bank revealed that the sender had stated someone offered him 10,000 Rs monthly to open an account and provide details. 💸 The man, who was poor, agreed and then made a Binance account in his name. The person who made the offer committed fraud with five different people. 😡 He received PKR in the poor man's bank account and then bought USDT. The gang involved five individuals. 🕵️‍♂️ The bank clearly stated that the only option for our safety was to refund the amount immediately. 🔄 They mentioned that if we did, they would declare that we didn't know who sent the money, keeping us safe. 🔐

Actually, the fraud targeted a businessman who registered an FIR. 🚔 The police captured the account holder, who then revealed the truth. 😓 The gang has not been captured yet. 🚨

Solution :

For P2P sellers on Binance, always get an account statement video of the last seven days' history. 📹 If they haven't received payments from anyone, then proceed with the trade; otherwise, cancel it. ✅🚫
