    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561197991673596

    Victim profile: 76561198152970370

    What happened? Description:
    Firstly, I would like to say this MM has helped me sell around 600-700 CS:GO Case Keys.
    On the 26th March 2016, my MM decided to sell some keys for me, which is normal, so the "buyer" requested 135 keys, in which I gave to my MM, then 5 minutes later, I ask my MM for the money and he said, he didn't give me the money yet, and he has the keys, and he logged out of steam, so I know at this point, I was scammed, but what I didn't know is that the MM could be into it. After making a Reddit post, people and I came to the conclusion that the MM was the scammer after all, as I have no evidence the MM received money from the "buyer" as he doesn't show me these things, he only takes keys from me, then gives me PayPal money 5 mins later. I know him from around 6 months ago when I set up a reddit post buying knifes in csgo, and he approached me with CSGODouble winnings in which i kept him added incase of future cheap sales. I never intended him to be my MM, I just asked him "Hey do you know anyone trustworthy I can cashout to?" i asked this because he gambles alot, therefore winning and cashing out his earnings, so he must do it safely right? Anyway he decided that he would set up a advertisement on the CSGO Danmark page on Facebook, he said that would net me more overall profit and that i should give him the keys when a buyer comes along, and the buyer then gives him money via Mobile Pay App available in Denmark , at this point, im thinking, more money per key, what could go wrong, then he started saying stuff after a day 2 like "You better give me a good present after all this helping" "I want to go betting, give me like 3 awp asiimov" stuff like that, i got worried that he would do something strange in the near future, low and behold, i've been scammed, so in conclusion, after talking with the reddit community, i feel that the MM was responsible for taking my keys.

    Side detail: He always told me in Denmark tradition the seller (Me) cannot have the keys AND paypal at the same time, which i thought was rediculous. and it all adds up to this, this is why i cant have the money first, so he could strike at me like how he's done today.​

    Uploaded a screen shot of the reddit post, as well as the images that were included as links within the post.

    Just to clarify, the removal was not due to a lack of legitimacy of the post. The removal was based on subreddit policy to keep scam reports solely within the report forums, in order prevent witch hunts on users.

    Best of luck with your report @Marn .
