    What happened? Description:
    So I was selling my Burning Flames Milkman(Clean) on Tf2outpost. I decided since I just got a paypal account why not try selling for cash. I get added by this guy soon and he tells me he'll give me $370 for my hat if I went first. I told him any paypal trading would be done through a middleman but he denied. I told him if he wouldn't use a middleman than he should just buy pure off of marketplace.tf or tf2shop.net or any other tf2 buying sites. He then told me he couldn't. He has 10 yrs on steam and only 230 hours on tf2 with no rep. I then asked him to show me his trading history. When he showed me, one unusual trade had a named blacked out. As I did some research with the past unusual owners I came to the conclusion he got the unusual from an alt, even though he told me he bought it. As this is an obvoius attempt to scam me out of paypal with denying to use a middleman and telling me he'll give me $15 then I'll trade the hat and he'll pay me back and everything else, I reported it.​

    It's been about 2 weeks I believe, possibly more. When will an admin review this @Sjru ?. This guy could be targeting another person.

    Haha. Funny. I got scammed by this guy today. I'm pretty new to paypal trading and trading in general, so he scammed me for quite a bit of wealth.
    Why am i so stupid...?
