    Okay, first I'm going to clean up your report a bit.

    The guy above has played as the name you listed and has 2 unusuals in his BP - a N&B Nano and a Smoking Festivizer. Are those your hats? I'm guessing yes based on your Outpost trade. http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/4981904

    He's currently online as of this posting, so have you tried contacting him again to find out if it was an honest mistake?

    In any case, you're going to need screenshots of your chat if you have them, and a shot of your inventory history wouldn't hurt either. (Click your inventory and in the upper right, click View Inventory History) The inventory history shots would show what was exchanged and help you prove that he only paid for one hat - not both.

    Not just your BP. See my first post for instructions on how to get your inventory history if you don't know how. That shows your transactions - exactly what was traded, when it was traded, and to whom.

    From your profile page - click your inventory and in the upper right, click View Inventory History.

    Okay - simplest way. Get your inventory history front and center. Press Print Screen. Open MS Paint and press CTRL+V. Save that file. Minimize everything else if you need to.

    The comment box - the one you type in. Right next to Post Reply - Upload a File. If that doesn't work for some reason, use imgur.com

    A) Calm down. B) Why are you right clicking? Under this box - the one you are using to type your reply, there are 3 buttons. Click Upload a File. That will open a window with files from your computer. Find the screenshot. Don't right click anything. Just select the file and click open. That will attach the screenshot to your comment.
