    Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198126797258

    Victim profile: 76561198169456469

    What happened? Description:
    Contacted me using alias God is an Astronaut from seeing my thread via EpicNPC for my Faceless Rex courier autographed by Universe. We came to an agreement to be paid via PayPal to which he paid as a gift (he even tried to get a 3rd party involved). I verified some credentials and he has now opened a PayPal claim against me for fraud and has since blocked me from steam. This is the second time he has scammed off of EpicNPC. BAN HIM!​

    Provide Evidence:
    Ban him before he does it again!​

    Of the actual chat in the steam window, no. I copied and pasted it all into a word document. I've never used this site before because I've never done a transaction like this before, so I wasn't aware the actual window mattered. I just happened to have saved the conversation along with what turned out to be a bad quality video just in case something like this arose and I could use it for PayPal's protection, however it seems they are going to do little to squat, so I'd rather see at least something happen to this guy than nothing. He apparently has done this before and given the item back?

    I also have this which is the PayPal invoice which proves my chat log to be true. Within he states he leaves a statement on the payment which can be viewed in the PayPal picture here:

    You need screenshots of the chat. JPG or PNG files. The issue is that it's incredibly easy to just change text to say whatever.

    ^Indeed it is, but the PayPal statement that has HIS words verbatim that are in the chat more than help confirm the integrity of my evidence
