Don't let them steal your cryptos! 3 Common Scams in
#BİNANCE #P2P and how to avoid them.
P2P trading is awesome for swapping your cryptos for local currency, but scammers are always on the lookout for distracted users. If you're using Binance P2P, keep these golden rules in mind to protect your funds. 👇
1. The "Fake Proof" Trick
*How it works: The buyer marks the order as "paid" and sends you a screenshot of a supposed bank transfer. They rush you saying they need the cryptos now.
**The trap: The money never hit your bank; the screenshot is edited with Photoshop.
***How to avoid it: NEVER release the cryptocurrencies based on a receipt. Log into your banking app and verify that the actual balance is available in your account. If it doesn't show up, don't release.
2. The "Triangulated Payment" (Third-party Scam) 👥⚠️
*How it works: The money does arrive in your bank, but the name of the person who transferred it doesn't match the verified name on Binance.
**The trap: The scammer used a hacked or stolen bank account to pay you. The real account owner will report the transfer and the bank will freeze your funds for fraud investigation.
***How to avoid it: Always check that the name on the bank receipt exactly matches the verified name on Binance. If it doesn't match, cancel the order immediately and report the user.
3. The fake technical support outside of Binance 📱🚫
*How it works: The buyer asks for your WhatsApp or Telegram number to "speed up" the process, or you receive a message from a supposed "Binance Support" asking you to release the funds due to an error.
**The trap: Binance will never ask you to release cryptos outside of their official chat, nor will they contact you through private social media to resolve an open order.
***How to avoid it: Keep all communication strictly within the official platform chat. If they ask you to go outside of that, it's a huge red flag.
