    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198182857681

    Victim profile: 76561198253763092

    What happened? Description:
    Basically, I added him to trade for my bayonet case hardened 76% blue for items. He then proceeded to attempt to scam me using PayPal. He said that he wasn't going to pay my asking amount for the knife, and said that he had a person pricecheck it. Between the time that I told him it was 80% blue and my asking price (which was only several seconds) he said he had someone "the owner of csgopowerball" pricecheck it for around significantly under my asking price. I knew something was fishy so I went along with it. Then, after that, he proceeded to say:

    Pedro | Trading: We can do a skin trade. Send me offer
    Pedro | Trading: Send your knife, then Ill send $310 in skins
    Pedro | Trading: No 72 hr trade bans
    u smell like old man: lol
    u smell like old man: what?
    Pedro | Trading: No 72 hr ban
    u smell like old man: LOL
    Pedro | Trading: Want to get on a teamspeak to talk about it?
    u smell like old man: no way
    Pedro | Trading: Do you have a 72 hr ban?
    u smell like old man: no lol
    Pedro | Trading: okay.

    He obviously thinks, I've never traded before, and tells me to send my items first to make sure that there's no escrow. Which, I don't know how that even makes sense because if I send my items, they would still be held for 3 days.

    Anyways, this was an obvious scam attempt and i'm just here reporting what happened so that in the future, people will know that this guy is not to be trusted.
