In Pakistan, my friend recently faced an issue with Binance. 😔 He was new to the platform and accepted a third-party payment. 🛑 He also obtained the identity card of that person, but his account got frozen on next day. ❄️ The bank says that they had no idea about it and said the FIA had frozen his account. 🏦
After three months, we visited the FIA office. 🏢 The officers explained that "a person contacted a lady on Facebook, pretending to be her uncle who was in trouble. 🚨 She tried calling him (real uncle), but he didn't answer. 📞 She sent Rs. 10,000 to the fraudulent person, who then demanded Rs. 20,000. 💸 She sent it again, but when he asked for Rs. 200,000, she contacted her real uncle once again, who attended her call and denied sending any messages. 🚫 She called the Bank helpline and reported the fraudulent transactions. 📲
The fraudster created a Meezan freelance account in a lady's name. 👩 Meezan Bank immediately opened her freelance account without thorough verification. 👇 My friend, being new, didn't notice that the lady only had a thumb impression and no signature on his identity card. ✍️
The fraudster captured an uneducated lady's identity card and managed to apply for a Meezan freelancer account in her name. He then received multiple payments and bought USDT on Binance.
No one could approach the lady because bank records showed no account under her husband's name, and no other account was found. Further verification revealed that the lady belonged to a poor family. Consequently, the fraudulent person remains unknown.
Precaution:
- Never accept third-party payments, even if they provide CNIC pictures. 🛑
