Another user's bank account got frozen sadly 😢. They fell victim to a scam where they lost $1000 in December 2023. In India, scammers use phishing tactics 🎣 to trick people easily.
Here are some things to watch out for:
1️⃣ Overpriced Listings: Be careful of sellers offering cryptocurrencies at very high prices, especially if you're new. Don't fall for rates like 1USD = 83 INR!
2️⃣ Fake Payments: You might get notifications of payment, but when you check your bank, there's nothing there. Fake payments can hurt.
3️⃣ Invalid Transactions: Be cautious of payments that disappear or cause your account to be frozen. Avoid using third-party payment methods.
Tips for Staying Safe:
✅ Stick to direct fiat purchases.
✅ Before making a deal:
1️⃣ Check the KYC status and credibility of the seller/buyer.
2️⃣ If the completion rate is less than 98%, think twice about the transaction.
3️⃣ Look at the order history - more transactions usually mean the person is reliable.
4️⃣ Prefer experienced traders with a good track record in P2P trading.
