Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt

Victim profile: 76561198019513664

What happened? Description:

I make a post on Reddit's /r/GlobalOffensiveTrade stating I am selling my skin inventory for BTC/DOGE/Paypal. I receive a friend request on Steam which I accept. I check his profile, steamrep, and ask him to post on my reddit thread so I can check his account. He sends his CSGOREP page which contains a number of +reps for higher amounts of money than I would be trading with him. Most of these reps were from one user.
I decide he seems trustworthy and offer to go first with one knife. After accepting the offer, he deletes me, turns his profile to private, and edits his CSGOREP post to remove his info.

He has since turned his profile back from private as I post this, but he seems to have deleted all his friends.​

This guy tried to scam me a couple days ago.. for sure should be banned ASAP before he gets anyone else.

The scammer's Paypal email: [email protected]

I found it after talking to traders in his csgorep thread.

Hello @veq,
Please include an image of your paypal "All Activity" during the incident within a minimum time period of 1 month, and ensure the full browser is in the picture.
Also, would you kindly upload all chat screenshots un-cropped if you are able to? Thank you.

Yes, I have the original screens. I didn't even get to giving them my Paypal email address though, we were supposed to be trading half in Bitcoin, half in Paypal. I will upload my Bitcoin wallet.

Hello @veq,
The evidence is sufficient for your report to be prioritized for further investigation.
