    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198058492576

    Victim profile: 76561198006228711

    What happened? Description:
    The user added me to buy my Molten Mallard Wraith Wrap for paypal cash. He told me he would be willing to pay €280, and with practically no negotiation on my part, he raised his offer to €375. He linked me to "his" rep thread:

    http://manncotrading.com/index.php/topic,2979.0.html

    I was suspicious, and clicked on OP's profile, which linked to this user, Mitchellpeee:
    http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198027266677/

    When I told him about this, he immediately unfriended me. The custom URL he was using no longer worked, and he changed his profile name, avatar and URL. However, the previous name is still visible.​

    Provide Evidence:
    The second profile shows the scammer had used the "Mitchellpeee" handle, changing it after he unfriended me. It is still visible in his previous names list.​
