    Oh my god. I traded with him 4 Earbuds yesterday. He seems legit. Verified paypal and went first and also added "This is not refundable payment for virtual (intangible) items in the Steam online game Team Fortress 2. I will not dispute this transaction or perform a chargeback as I have already received the items" on the notes. I don't get the chargeback yet. It's now about time i guess....

    I was also chargebacked by Pinkman on the 4th, for $136. A day later, I still had him added (which I found odd), so I asked him if he had been hacked. Through use of Google Translate (since he appears to be Russian) I ascertained that he was hacked, and his account used as a front. Now, I didn't ask him to provide evidence of such (Steam Support contact, etc.), but that combined with the fact that there appear to be two Paypal accounts involved ("Chelsea Northrope" and "Vanessa Huau") makes me think that all accounts involved may be hacked, and thus the actual scammer not immediately evident. Here is the (end of the) initial conversation I had with him: http://pastebin.com/1nUuBZwF. Here is the end of (I'm not used to saving all chatlogs) the second conversation I had, after the incident: http://pastebin.com/0AFA0WQ7. Next time he's online I'll ask him for actual proof that he was hacked, as of now I'm adding some of the people who the items have ended up in the inventories of.

    same issue here, 4 buds for 144 USD, chargeback today. Lucky a friendly trader added me to warn me about that guy as he has gotten a trade request from that guy and find him suspicious
