    Accused profile: 76561198156033886

    Victim profile: 76561198142235454

    What happened? Description:
    Was added over doing a paypal sale of my used to be owned Strange Field Tested Current Event Scattergun. I told them I would do the deal of 18 Dollars and a Key pure during the trade of the scatter. I got the key and they received the scatter, and I then gave the email for my paypal. They then said ''Thank you'' and unfriended me. No money was sent, or even attempted to be sent. Shortly after a trade opened up on outpost of them selling it, which they closed after I accused them of scamming, responding with ''lol''.​

    The date on the paypal money received check is set to my incorrect PC day, the 17th. Just to clear up any confusion.

    I can't for the chat history, since I have exited the chatbox (Hope its still a good enough picture, as I sadly using the snipping tool which basically takes a photo of a select dragged area), but for everything else I can go and do a screen capture redo. Ill get it done within a hour and a half from now since I must go somewhere for now.

    Done for everything but the chat, since I no longer have access after closing the window when unfriended. I hope the chat screen shot is good since I did maximize it in the photo. Thank you for your work :)

    By any chance does this report have an estimated final review date? Its just saddening seeing the violator sell the scammed items, and happily continue trading like nothing happened untouched.
    (Sorry if I seem impatient)

    Welp, I basically got the scammer to accidentally admit to what he did. He said the report will only get him a warning since he traded me a key (Which makes no sense, since you get marked for scamming without any warnings or strikes, which also includes even if the scammed person received a portion of what was promised, and a single Key without the $18 included is way too far for being warning worthy in my book)
