Friends who have been depositing and withdrawing funds recently, you really need to be extra careful!

The OTC market has been pretty treacherous lately, so be cautious whether you’re buying or selling USDT. See a deal with an unusually attractive price? Don’t rush in—it’s probably blacklisted USDT. And if someone keeps urging you to complete the transaction quickly, there’s a good chance something’s wrong.

Here are some suggestions:
- Choose merchants with good ratings and high transaction volumes—don’t just go for the cheapest option
- It’s best to use a dedicated account for receiving payments
- Keep screenshots of all your transaction records—they can be lifesavers when things go wrong

Account freezes are no joke—if something goes wrong, explaining your side can be a huge hassle. Better to take things slow than to get yourself into trouble. Experienced folks, feel free to share your tips for avoiding these pitfalls.

This Black U thing is real, my friend has fallen for it before and still regrets it. Using dedicated cards for specific purposes is a brilliant move, should have done this long ago. If a deal looks too good to be true, be careful—it’s not a windfall. Getting your card frozen once is enough to give you a real headache. Don’t be greedy for cheap deals, this time it’s truly a painful lesson. These posts from experienced folks are worth saving—they can really help out in critical moments.

Black-market USDT is really everywhere. I almost got scammed last time, luckily I realized in time. Getting your card frozen once is bad enough, so you really have to choose merchants carefully. Using a dedicated card for each transaction really works, that's how everyone does it now. If the price is too low, you should be alert—there's no such thing as a free lunch. Never skip taking screenshots; if something goes wrong, it could save you. I've blocked anyone who tried to rush me into completing transactions—not worth it. The ratings for reputable merchants are right there; don't risk a huge loss just to save a little.

I've experienced blacklisted USDT once before, it was truly a painful lesson. Using a dedicated card for each use is so important; that's how I do it now. Anyone urging you to place an order quickly is definitely a scam—this is a golden rule. Having your card frozen hurts more than missing out on a profit; I'd rather skip a deal than take a shady order. Does anyone have any reliable way to verify USDT? Looking for advice. If the price is too good to be true, be cautious—everyone who's tried to save a buck has lost money before. Getting into the habit of saving screenshots really pays off; it can save you in a pinch. OTC is really deep waters; feels like there are more scammers than legit vendors these days.

This black market USDT thing is real, I got burned a few months ago, so now I only stick with a few established vendors. Frozen cards happen way more easily than you think, don’t wait until something goes wrong to regret it. I just pass on those super cheap orders—it's not like I need that little bit of extra money anyway. Using a dedicated card for each purpose is a great tip, I’ve been doing that for a while. OTC trading has definitely gotten riskier in the past couple of years, you really need to stay sharp. Vendors introduced by friends are usually more trustworthy; I basically avoid strangers. Make a habit of taking screenshots—it can really save you when it matters most.

It's really impossible to guard against black-market USDT; I almost got scammed last time. Seriously, don't go for cheap deals. If your card gets frozen once, the account is done for. You really have to play it safe. Using a dedicated card for a dedicated purpose is genius. Should've done it this way sooner. Orders with prices that are too tempting are definitely suspicious. Learning to say no is really crucial. OTC is a minefield right now; you absolutely need to keep screenshots as evidence.

There really are so many damn black market USDT scams. I got burned once last year, now I just pass on any cheap deals. The dedicated card suggestion is brilliant, I’ve been doing that for a while—otherwise you’re really screwed. Only after having my card frozen did I understand what real regret is. No matter how much you try to explain to the bank, it doesn’t work. Anyone who rushes me to complete a transaction gets blocked immediately. Only cowards panic. Taking screenshots for records is a must, it can really save your ass.
