Today, I lost $800—my entire savings—in a Binance P2P scam. I'm just a student who invested carefully, waited patiently, and finally sold my crypto, hoping to cover my expenses. The buyer sent a fake payment screenshot, and in my excitement, I didn't double-check before releasing the USDT. By the time I realized, it was too late. The money never arrived, the buyer disappeared, and now I'm left staring at an empty wallet.
This wasn't just money—it was months of sacrifices, skipped meals, and late-night hustle. I trusted the system, but someone out there saw me as an easy target. The worst part? Knowing I could've avoided it if I'd just taken an extra minute to verify.
I'm not writing this to beg for help. I just need someone to understand how crushing this feels. Maybe my mistake will remind others to be more careful. Always check your payments. Always. Because once it's gone, there's no getting it back.
To the scammer: $800 might be nothing to you, but it was everything to me. I hope that money was worth your conscience.
💔 *A hard lesson learned too late.*
