I think that victims who have been scammed was due to the hurry that the scammer does to them.
They have to remember that if they've been rushed to do the transaction and checking, they have to look at it as a sign that there could be some red flags already.
Exactly! That part I bolded for emphasis is laced with salient message and I want to believe that genuine newbies on this forum and greenhorns to P2P (it doesn't matter if one is a veteran or high ranked here) should take note of that part.
What I do when I've an impatient merchant, whether on an exchange or on telegram group, is to slow down and spend more time running through the transaction I've with them. Trying to hurry me up activates my radar. I've saved myself from falling victim more than three times that way.
That's right, you have to do it slowly so that you can always review if you're doing it correctly. And if the other end is on a hurry, let them hurry on their own but you're not going to move as if they're predicting the entire transaction.
You just can't do what they like without verifying that everything has been done already accordingly. Most of the newbies that have this kind of merchant, they usually panic.
They're putting pressure so they are predicting that you should do it already but do not be dictated by them.
