I just encountered a rather strange P2P case: selling 800 USDT, equivalent to 21 million VND, but the account shows an amount up to 40 million—almost double the order value.
The buyer messaged saying they transferred by mistake and asked to get back 19 million; that sounds reasonable, but what made me pause is that they require sending the excess money to a different account, not the same account they just sent from.
If I were to forward the funds to an unrelated third party, and later there are any issues with the money flow, it would be very hard to explain why P2P funds ended up in an unfamiliar wallet.
So I chose the safest option: don’t refund myself, don’t transfer to another account, keep the original Order ID and chat history intact, and then open an Appeal asking Binance to investigate.
From how I see it: whether the money goes into the account is one thing, but sending it back to someone through which channel is another—if you can’t verify it yourself, don’t handle it on your own.
How do you guys usually deal with cases like this?
