Hey everyone,
I’m sharing this painful experience in hopes it helps someone else avoid the same trap.
📅 It happened back in February.
I was out grabbing a quick bite and tried to pay via UPI—
Payment failed.
Tried again. Same error.
Something wasn’t right, so I called my bank.
Their reply left me speechless:
“Your account has been frozen due to suspicious transactions involving illegal funds.” 😨
After hours of panic and investigation, I finally uncovered the reason.
Someone I traded with on a P2P crypto platform had committed fraud.
Because I unknowingly received funds from that person, my account was flagged along with theirs—
Even though I had done nothing wrong.
The worst part?
🔒 My account is still frozen months later.
💡 What You Should Know Before Doing P2P Crypto Trades:
1️⃣ Avoid risky profiles
• Don’t trade with users who have fewer than 50 completed trades
• Avoid anyone with a completion rate under 95%
2️⃣ Match the names
• Make sure the sender’s bank account name matches their Binance (or crypto exchange) name exactly.
• Mismatches are a major red flag.
3️⃣ Be slow to trust, quick to verify
• Always double-check every detail before clicking “Transfer.”
• One wrong trade could freeze your account for months—or worse, forever.
This experience cost me dearly, but if it helps even one person stay safe, it’s worth sharing.
Learn from my mistake.
Protect your funds. Trade smart. Stay safe.
