I bought SHIB on MetaMask BSC network using the contract address 0xf09a100c32d780f0a48754e43533f9fb374e85f9 shown on BscScan. I then transferred to Binance on SHIB BSC address shown. The TXHash shown successful transaction but I never received the token on Binance and they say I have used incorrect network. From BSC to BSC is what I transferred? Am I missing something here. I know SHIB is an ERC20 Token but since Binance showed the deposit can come through BSC is the reason why I bought from BSC network. Any help highly appreciated.
That could be a fake one to scam people, I do not know how it works but I know that if you have a erc20 address in metamask most of the time that is also the same address as the bsc one as well, which means they may have stolen your money that way. However considering you were thinking it would be binance, then I am not sure if they would steal your money neither, which could be another reason. I would say when you are not 100% sure what is going on, do not spend or send your money anywhere that is not guaranteed.
I do not have too much money so I always check it very carefully, I have invested some money into some stuff and I ended up with a bit of profit but during all of that process I was having heart attack type of feelings just for sending and receiving a bit of money, like sending 100 bucks to somewhere is a big deal for me, I check it 10 times before I make a move.
