    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561197969407976

    Victim profile: 76561197999598182

    What happened? Description:
    I was scammed out of $300 of items for TF2 & Dota 2. I posted on his trade on Dota 2 Lounge http://dota2lounge.com/trade?t=157059917 that I was interested in selling some items. His long account history and donator status led me to trust him. He added me from that trade and I verified that the account that added me was the same as the one that posted the trade and not just a copy-past imposter. It is indeed the same person. He told me what he wanted from my inventory and we agreed a price of $300. I looked up a random item form the list on steam marketplace and it matched his valuation, so I had no reason to distrust him.
    I gave him my paypal address (which I have deleted from the screenshot and chat log for security) and he said he was ready to transfer. I sent the items over in a trade offer and he instantly removed and blocked me. I could also no longer post on his Dota 2 Lounge post to report him over there. I need justice.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Verification screenshots and chat log attached.​

    @Marcie Yep you can provide that chat screen shot without any edits.
    We can't match up your paypal address without seeing it.

    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History for last few days to present- open this with a web browser, move your mouse over the users name in question so it shows up the hypertext popup URL at the bottom of the screen - take the screen shot DO NOT edit it in anyway and upload. Also need a screen shot of your Paypal activity for let’s say the last several days full screen DO NOT edit this shot in anyway. Upload here.

    @Marcie Everything is good except for the trade inventory history shot - look at my directions about the mouse pointer.
