    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [None] No items

    Accused profile: 76561198321885643

    Victim profile: 76561198332723633

    What happened? Description:
    They tried to contact me and saying giving $100 to my steam account with their paypal. My account is fine. However the account that I am reporting has been taken (https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198321885643). Will provide screenshots of the event.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I have included screenshots. I messaged dax over discord and he confirmed that his account on steam was taken. My account, Agent C, is fine. He mentioned that he had a friend that message him and his account was also taken/scammed. If he is able to find the account that scammed him as well, then I will update later on and include it if he has evidence of what happened. Dax already created another account, so he is fine with his original account(https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198321885643) being reported.​
