    Thats all I have because he added and wrote about it like 2 days ago and wanted to trade today (earlier chat log is gone). Btw here is a fixed link to the fake middleman because he might change is custom id: http://steamrep.com/search?q=STEAM_0:1:21533093

    Hannes, thank you for your prompt report, this user just added me and wanted to make a paypal trade. I would have gone through had I not seen your post.

    I had a similar experience with this trader and at this point I believe he is a scammer...he contacted me about buying an unusual (this nanobalaclava, to be exact: http://www.tf2outpost.com/item/440,2465525198,521,5 - you can see my user listed as one of the most recent owners) through paypal. Since he seemed to have a lot of +rep and I am recently getting into trading (and therefore don't have much), I decided to go first. He traded for the unusual, but told me afterwards he would need a day to get the money. I didn't hear from him and later that week he unfriended me and, I assume, blocked me (since I have tried refriending him).
    Unfortunately I do not have the chat log from the transaction, but I did attempt to contact him about the issue through tf2outpost.com, as seen in the following thread: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/18821433 - I told him that I still hadn't received the money for my hat, and judging from his inactivity after that point, I highly doubt that I will actually get any of it back.

    Hope this helps with the review
