Recently, I faced a very serious issue while trading on Binance P2P, and I want to share it as a warning for other users in Pakistan.
I sold 700 USDT (โจ205,000) to a merchant through Binance P2P. The transaction was completed smoothly, and I received the payment in my bank account. However, things took a shocking turn after 10 days.
๐ My bank account was suddenly blocked, and the payment was placed on hold.
๐ When I tried contacting the buyer, he ignored my calls. On WhatsApp, he only replied once, claiming it was a โchain dispute.โ
๐ I went to my bank (OPM), where they confirmed that a dispute of โจ205,000 had been filed against meโbut they refused to share full details.
โ ๏ธ To make matters worse, I discovered that the payment was made through a third party, which immediately raises red flags in P2P trading.
Thankfully, I had collected strong evidence, including:
โ CNIC copy of the sender
โ Payment screenshot
โ Contact number & WhatsApp chat history
โ Written application already submitted to the bank
I also reported the matter to Binance Support and am waiting for further updates.
