You that you're receiving coins from someone, don't you know who and who is actually sending you coins?

How can someone send a screenshot to you and claim he is someone else and you won't know?

In this case, what will you now say to the original sender of the coins when you have mistaken their identity?

You are not serious yourself.

They actually kinda are... If you follow the block transaction enough and click on the wallet address especially if it’s a permanent wallet address perhaps from an xchange, you’d be able to see recent transactions

Also most xchanges do kyc even P2P ones do kyc so you can easily be traced off your permanent wallet add
Re: SCAM ALERT!! New Bitcoin Scam Please Read by kryptochats: 10:54pm On Feb 13, 2021
all those insulting him are ignorant and knows nothing about bitcoin.

so this is how it works from block explorer i can view every transaction coming to a particular wallet , lets use this wallet address for example - 3E8ociqZa9mZUSwGdSmAEMAoAxBK3FNDcd to view this wallet just visit this link https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/3E8ociqZa9mZUSwGdSmAEMAoAxBK3FNDcd from the link you can see the total amount of coin sent from this wallet and the total amount of coin received, and also all transactions including recent transactions, so a scammer can keep refreshing this page to view your recent transactions which he can then screenshot and show to you, making you think he actually made the payment, the reason why people fall for it is that, the original sender of the coin may take some time or delay to inform the owner of the wallet that he sent coin, by the time he informs the owner of the wallet the scammer has already gotten to Canada with your money!

Thanks brother I posted something here and the insult I got was too much some said I did it because I wanted fame. I have a broadcast list for all my customers and I do drop my address and sometimes customers do send coin to my address without informing me before sending, because of the trust and maybe after like an hour the customer we send me screenshots.. I posted it here for others to know the new methods they are using to scam exchangers...


God bless you brother

The scams associated with using crypto just keeos increasing by the day. angry

CBN took a good decision by restricting use of crypto in Nigeria
