My Buyer Said: “My Friend Will Pay for Me.” I Stopped.
On August 12, I had a 15,000,000 VND order on Binance P2P.
Everything looked normal.
The price was fine, the payment method matched, and the order was already moving normally.
Then the buyer sent me a message:
“My friend will pay for me.”
That changed my mind immediately.
The money might still arrive, but the person in the order and the person making the payment were no longer the same.
I didn't assume it was a scam. Maybe there was a simple explanation.
But I wasn't going to release 15,000,000 VND worth of crypto based on an assumption either.
I kept the conversation inside the Binance P2P order and asked about the payment details. I also checked the payment account carefully instead of just waiting for a “paid” message.
This is something I think is easy to overlook with P2P.
A merchant can have a strong profile and a high completion rate. The order can look perfectly normal. But you still need to verify the actual payment you're receiving.
If the account name doesn't match, the payment details suddenly change, or the other side starts pushing me to release quickly, I stop and verify before doing anything.
And if the issue can't be resolved, I keep the Order ID, chat history and payment records and use the Appeal process rather than taking the conversation somewhere else.
The trade might take a few extra minutes.
That's fine.
I'd rather spend those minutes checking than spend them trying to fix a transaction I rushed through.
For me, the rule is simple:
Right person. Right payment. Right order.
If one of them doesn't match, I don't release.
