I also engineered him into admitting his main.​

make sure the alt and main are linked please. Screenshot D. is the Gyazo he sent me trying to convince me of payment.

I could easily say that this guy is scamming me, but I'll leave it up to whoever is deciding. I don't know if my payment really went through to him or not, but at least I was able to cancel the payment if he was trying to do something.

He didn't engineer me into "admitting my main" by the way, I have my main account linked on the profile page of this account. So I'm not sure if that's even evidence when I have it blatantly linked in my description.

I'll provide the image, Understand that I didn't show everything because I didn't want to give away any personal information that was shown below.

It was just this one that was linked, I linked it twice cause I thought steam may have deleted the first link because it was detected as a link and tends to do that.

I'll go screenshot my entire Paypal, but is it okay if I censor my friend's name and other payments below? Because I'd rather not show that, especially without his consent.

Okay well I'll go screenshot it, give me a few.

The screenshots end over Gyazo were uploaded as Screenshot D.
Update Still no payment or cancellation notice.
I also wanted to note on screenshot D it lists me as Jon Franko, My Paypal is registered as Jonathan Franko. I just wanted to see what kind of schnenigans would occur.

^

the above screenshot is from the third of this month. As soon as I remember my paypal password, i'll get ya a updated one.

RE:

I also wanted to make sure along the road if something does come from this report that the two accounts were linked, and that no such denial could come from it.

How could you have sent the payment on the 22nd if we just talked today?
@Photoediting confirmed
You edited that picture. Way to fail with the dates.

Saying that is one thing, but providing evidence is another.

your evidence leads to a logical conclusion that the picture was edited. You claimed to have sent a payment 3 days prior to us ever meeting. How is that logical?

You're saying that we didn't meet 3 days ago but we did meet earlier, in fact I'll go get the full image from when I originally sent the payment.
