Scammed for 15 USDT — Wallet Still Has Funds, Looking for Help to Recover

Hi everyone,

I recently got scammed while trying to buy an Instagram account from someone on Reddit. They asked me to send 15 USDT via the Ethereum (ERC-20) network to this wallet:
0xDc385F12974C622C91515e1766EaAAeE6484CfeF

After I sent the payment, the scammer deleted their Reddit account and all messages, and disappeared completely.

I checked the wallet on Etherscan, and about 13.8 USDT (after fees) is still sitting there.

I’ve reported this to Binance and Tether, asking them to freeze the funds, but I’m not sure if or when that will happen.

If anyone has experience recovering crypto from scam wallets or can suggest ways to get the funds back, please help. Any advice or support would be appreciated.

Thanks for reading and stay safe.
