⚠️ Caution in P2P trading on Binance: How to protect yourself from becoming a victim? 🔒


Trading via the P2P feature (Peer to Peer) 🤝 on Binance has become a popular method for buying and selling cryptocurrencies directly between individuals. While this method may seem easy and fast ⚡, it carries some risks 🚨 that may expose the user to fraud if not cautious.


🔴 What are the main risks in P2P trading?

  1. Financial fraud 💸

    Some sellers or buyers may claim to transfer money while they have not actually done so.


    Transfer with suspicious funds 🕵️‍♂️

    There is a possibility that the seller receives funds coming from illegal sources, which may expose their bank account to scrutiny ⚖️.


    Temptation of unrealistic prices 💰✨

    Some scammers offer very tempting prices (much lower or higher than the market) to lure victims.


    Psychological pressure 😰

    Some scammers use urgency ⏳ or threats to push the other party to cancel the protection provided by Binance.


    Manipulating the conversation 💬

    The scammer may ask to communicate outside the Binance platform (WhatsApp 📱, Telegram 📡) to escape monitoring and protection.


🛡️ How to protect yourself from fraud on P2P?

  1. Only deal within the Binance platform

    Never transfer money or send coins outside the escrow system (Escrow) 🔐.



    👀 Check the trader's reputation

    • Choose sellers/buyers with a high transaction completion rate (over 90%).


      Monitor the number of previous transactions and ratings ⭐.


    🚫 Avoid overly tempting offers

    A price that differs significantly from the market is a warning sign ⚠️.


    🔎 Do not trust screenshots or photos

    Verify for yourself that the amount has arrived in your bank account 🏦 before releasing the coins.

    👤 Verify the bank account

    Ensure that the bank transfer comes from the same name as the account holder on Binance for the other party.


    💬 Avoid communication outside of Binance

    Any discussion or agreement must be within the platform chat, so Binance can intervene in case of a dispute 🛠️.


    🏠 Use only your personal accounts

    Do not use third-party accounts to receive or send money ✋.

    🔑 Enable two-factor authentication (2FA)

    to keep your account secure from hacking 🛡️.

🆘 What to do if you are the victim of a fraud attempt?

  • Do not cancel the order ❌ or release the coins.


    Use the option Appeal (استئناف) 📢 on Binance.

    Submit all evidence (transfer photos 📷, conversation 💬, bank details 📑) to the relevant team.


    📝 Summary

Trading via P2P on Binance is a useful and fast tool 🚀 if used with caution. However, any leniency in verifying the identity of the other party or dealing outside the platform may lead to financial losses 💔 or even legal issues ⚖️.

Always make your motto:

“Do not trust anyone outside the escrow system 🔐, and do not release the hold until you verify it yourself ✅.”
