🔐 ⚠️ P2P Bitcoin Traders: Beware of Revolut Chargebacks ⚠️

We've seen an increase in reports of users getting scammed on RoboSats and similar P2P platforms when using Revolut as a payment method.

Here's how the scam works:

A buyer pays you via Revolut for BTC.

You release the BTC after confirming receipt.

Days later, the buyer requests a chargeback through Revolut, falsely claiming fraud or an unauthorized transaction.

You lose the fiat and the Bitcoin.

💡 Important reminder: Revolut payments are reversible. Bitcoin transactions are not.

✅ How to protect yourself:

Avoid using Revolut or any other chargeback-prone payment method (PayPal, Wise, etc.) for P2P crypto trades.

Always keep proof of payment and screenshots of all communication.

Only accept payments from accounts that clearly match the user you're trading with.

Consider switching to non-reversible methods like:

💵 Cash

🪙 Monero (XMR)

💲 USDT (on-chain transfers)

💶 SEPA instant transfers (non-reversible in many banks)

🔒 The more privacy and decentralization we seek, the more personally responsible we must become.

Protect your sats. Don't trust—verify. ⚡
