    User added me using the same name, profile picture, and profile information trying to offer 3 times my buyout with money via paypal. The significant overpay, starting time difference, and trade probation screamed scammer. Probably is attempting to scam people with chargebacks on paypal, if he even intends on paying in the first place.
