What happened? Description:

I advertised my Ak Black Lam with 4x Flipsid3 Katowice Holo Stickers on Reddit for 420usd cash. JannisZ added me and offered 400usd BTC, which I accepted.

He provided some cash trade rep here: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/WorldwideDistributionShop/discussions/1/3070873501568378644/ (screenshot included)

As I have no official cash trade rep, I agreed that I go first. He sent me a trade offer for the item, I accepted, and then I sent him my BTC wallet address. He said he sent 400usd worth of, and I waited an hour, with no BTC entering my account, and no pending transactions. Here shows that there was no pending transaction at all: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/3JcgfDeVB5jQ4nArtWVBiDj9DqvQXnzMw6

He kept me added kept talking and later stated that his bank had declined his coinbase transaction... He claims that he will either try and pay again, or will return it in 7 days when the tradelock is lifted...

I want to submit this report just in case that is not true and he is trying to go on a scamming spree. To caution anyone else who is trading with him in the coming few days. Will update this report if he does pay me or returns the items. All screenshot evidence attached.​

I ended up getting my bank to work, so I sent the $400 to his BTC wallet address provided. All evidence is attached below excluding confidential financial transactions which is meant to be kept private.

Ok then it's a proper report now. He's claimed to have tried to send it a second time, nothing showing in my wallet, nothing showing on blockchain: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/3JcgfDeVB5jQ4nArtWVBiDj9DqvQXnzMw6

I am correct in saying that if he actually sent any Bitcoin to my Bitcoin address it would show up on Blockchain explorer? He's claimed that its due to me using Coinjar an Australian wallet, but that should not affect it at all, it's a standard bitcoin wallet and I've had no issues the couple times I have used it internationally in the past.

And just to clear things up I was not using the report as a weapon, was posting as a caution to others he may be trading with in the 7 day period, JUST IN CASE he was indeed trying to scam as I suspected. Apologies if that's unacceptable, but I am submitting the report properly now as he falsely claimed to have sent the money again, and has now removed me.

My BTC address: 3JcgfDeVB5jQ4nArtWVBiDj9DqvQXnzMw6

Unsure what his address is.

Trade history screenshot attached, URL visible.

I'm not here to argue, but the reason I posted cropped screenshots was because if these where full screen they would leak confidential financial information which I do not wish to leak, therefore none at all. Even though this is in the rules to never post confidential information you don't wish to leak, and after I paid, if nothing can be done, then I can accept the consequences.

Whatever is going on with transaction, I strongly believe his address is either invalid because the last times it received transactions were a year ago or something that I couldn't explain. I'm lost for words on where my money went.
Thanks
