    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198257886744

    Victim profile: 76561198041582015

    What happened? Description:
    I was selling my BP and Lasoon offered to buy it. We agreed on $375, and I went first. I sent my items to him, and he "sent" my paypal funds. In the screenshot he provided, it seems as though he edited my paypal email in over a different send receipt. Apparently the money was really sent to someone named "Henri Tuulik," possibly an alt paypal of his or something. Everything checked out okay on his end, at first. He was VAC banned, but his excuse for it seemed legit. In my haste to cash my backpack out, I failed to realize that this guy has minimal hours in any games, is a low steam level, and joined the BP.TF forums only a few days ago.

    I'm not saying it wasn't my fault for being so gullible, but I would like this guy marked as a scammer, so that others may avoid him.​

    Provide Evidence:
    The first five screenshots are my initial conversation and trade agreement with the user. Once I called out the paypal screenshot, he unfriended me. It's obvious that he knew I was catching on and bolted. The sixth is his spoofed paypal receipt. The seventh is a picture of my paypal balance to prove I did not receive the money. The eighth is the identity verification.​
