What happened? Description:

I posted to trade my Huntsman Knife on CSGOLounge for real cash via PayPal.

I had a successful trade earlier, and this person seemed like he had a good reputation. Lots of positive comments on his profile, decently high profile level on Steam, positive reputation on CSGOLounge, and I didn't think it could go wrong.

He even verified the amount of money to send me via PayPal, whether or not I wanted any specific notes in the payment, etc. We agreed to send simultaneously after he also verified that I didn't have email verification on. I sent it, and he claimed he did too. After seeing no new activity on PayPal, I asked him to verify my PayPal email. At that point, he finally replied that he copied and pasted it, so it couldn't have gone wrong. He then de-friended me, and blocked communications.​

Provide Evidence:

Screenshot 1 shows the agreement to trade, our negotiation of accepting at the same time, initiating the trade window, etc. It also shows him claiming he sent the payment and then finally de-friending me.

Screenshot 2 shows the trade I accepted.

Screenshot 3 shows that I have not received any payment via PayPal in the last month.

If any other proof is needed I can take more screenshots.​

Isn't this good enough proof?
