The third-party havale trap
A buyer pays you by havale or EFT from someone else’s account. Often that money came from a fraud victim. When the victim complains, the bank can block your account and you may be asked to explain the transfer. Accept payments only from an account in the buyer’s verified name, and keep the trade inside the platform’s order. See selling USDT safely and P2P arbitrage jobs.
Check a platform with the SPK
Since Law No. 7518 came into force in 2024, crypto asset service providers in Türkiye fall under the Capital Markets Board (Sermaye Piyasası Kurulu, SPK). The SPK publishes lists of providers that are licensed or operating while their applications are reviewed. These lists change, so check the current version on the SPK website before you deposit, and be wary of any platform that is not on them.
Check any USDT you receive
Most USDT traded in Türkiye moves on TRON. The official TRON USDT contract is TR7NHqjeKQxGTCi8q8ZY4pL8otSzgjLj6t. Compare the contract of the token you received in your wallet or on Tronscan. Anything else is a copy. See flash USDT TRC20.
