How do you check a wallet before settling OTC? USDC paranoia

Hey all,

I've recently taken a dip into the trading side of crypto for the last 6 months (wasn't trading earlier, just assimilating, various assets). I've read and heard horrifying stories about how interaction with one tainted wallet, which in turn had interacted with a tainted asset or dex, got their wallets frozen.

So this wallet risk keeps a lot of people awake at night. So I tried a few free tools which miss things or give vague risk scores without an explanation. Am I being too paranoid?

So what do you guys do before sending a funds? Just trusting the other party? Or telegram chats? Or is there something I'm missing?

Cheers
