The situation is quite impressive; the buyer and the middleman specifically scam those selling U off-market.
Here’s what happened:
The online friend was buying and selling U to make a profit, and is a newcomer who has just started. A few days ago, through a friend (reliable), he was introduced to a 'middleman,' who then introduced him to a cash buyer. The online friend and the buyer agreed on the U price for a transaction in Jiangsu. They have a small group, including the online friend, the middleman, and the buyer.
The online friend drove to Jiangsu and met the buyer at a hotel, where there was a female buyer. Following the instructions of the middleman in the group, the online friend first transferred 10 U to the group’s receiving address, and the buyer confirmed receipt. Then, he transferred two more times, totaling 400,000 RMB worth of U. Just as the online friend was counting the buyer's cash, suddenly, the uncle showed up!
A man came with the uncle, claiming that an online friend scammed his wife. The woman who came with cash to buy the currency is his wife. As a result, the online friend was taken away by the uncle, interrogated that day, and the interrogation record stated that he was reselling USDT, but was released the next day. It is obvious that the thief is shouting to catch the thief; the online friend was tricked by the other party while the wife was trading inside the room, and the husband was outside calling the police.
According to the online friend, the other party asked him to use a brand new unregistered V chat, and that the current 'middleman' had disappeared and could not be contacted. This confirms that the other party is a professional fraud gang, specifically targeting those who sell U for cash. The 'middleman' might be manipulating everything from abroad, with the people coming to trade cooperating with him to commit fraud, and then splitting the proceeds.
Some people are puzzled: what if the uncle comes looking? Aren't the buyer and his wife afraid of being exposed? What is there to fear? The only thing these bloodthirsty people fear is being poor! Even if the uncle comes looking, the buyer and his wife are not afraid. It's simple: they have not received the currency; the receiving address was sent in the group, and it is not theirs. They did not receive the currency, but the online friend came to take their cash, which is why they called the police.
Typically, in such scams, the receiving address is not from the person you meet in reality, but from the person manipulating everything behind the scenes. I advise those selling currency off-market to definitely record the entire process on video. When the buyer provides the receiving address, repeatedly confirm whether it is their own. If not, regardless of the other party's excuses, refuse the transaction outright. The person must be the owner of the wallet; anyone else is a scammer.
What should we do now? Just report to the police. It is recommended to organize all materials and evidence related to the transaction and report to other police stations at the incident location. Although virtual currency transactions are at your own risk, USDT has now also been recognized as a virtual asset. In previous similar cases, many uncles have accepted the case, and many have been ruled by the court.
Uncle from Jiangsu has a high understanding of virtual currencies. The PIUs token fund case that caused a sensation in the entire currency circle was handled by them, which is why they received praise from the GA department. It can be said that the uncle from Jiangsu knows more about virtual currencies than other uncles and has higher technical investigation capabilities. #内容挖矿 $SOL Follow me! Get more exciting content!
