    -In my own defense, I did not know that the middleman was an impersonator until Latency pointed it out to me, and at that point Latency had already thought I was "with" the scammer I guess and wouldn't believe a word I said. I commented on the real GentlemaN's profile, then the fake one added me. Considering it was 2AM and I had had a few drinks, I believed him and went through with it, asked Latency to join a chat with the fake GentlemaN and I, and at this point is when he pointed it out.

    -- I did not know the middleman was an impersonator nor did I intend on scamming Latency, I wanted to buy his AK, and wanted to do it safely with a middleman. Also, I have no ties with the fake GentlemaN, the first time I had ever spoken to the guy was when he added me.

    ---I've closed all chats with the impersonator, but as soon as I called him out on his bull****, he removed and blocked me with no hesitation.

    I'm sorry Latency.

    @Cuppers I've looked thru the real GentlemaN's profile for this time period - I do not see where you left a message.

    Damn, didn't think of that... I literally just deleted it because I was getting notifications every time someone else posted a comment on his profile and it was kind of annoying. And I don't guess there's anyway to go back and see?

    any screenshots added here for evidence needs to be completely full screen, uncropped and unedited and uploaded directly to the report.

    Ok issue I have with that is it doesn't prove its exactly the correct user and not an impersonator - all I see is a name basically.

    I copied and pasted his customURL. I mean, that's really all I can do, right? Do you have any ideas as to what I can do as proof?

    I've gone over everything and I'm going to side on the data that I can see in the screen show you directing to the real Gent so I'm satisified with archiving this report as is .
    The other user the fake MM is already tagged/banned at this time.
