    The scammer said that they would pay me with Paypal and that I should send the key first. Stupidly, I agreed, and then he immediately logged off, activated the key, and unadded me as a friend. Now I not only have no way to bring the log back up, but I've also lost the game and don't know if anything can be done thanks to the chat being gone and he no longer being my friend. Still the chat went like this.

    Code:
    Mr Pringles: ji
    Mr Pringles: hi
    Mr Pringles: I want to trade.  I have Paypal but you have to send the key first
    machomuu: Sure, Sounds good
    Mr Pringles: Good
    Mr Pringles: Send the Key
    Mr Pringles: You there
    machomuu: Yeah, I saw that you were typing so I waited
    machomuu: Here it is:
    machomuu: -Key-
    Mr Pringles is Offline

    I do have Proof of Purchase, as well as the used code. The game in question was Metro: Last Light.

    I am also wondering if Steam might be able to do something about this regardless of whether it can be investigated by Steamrep or not.

    Alright, through a stroke of luck (and a little cunning) I managed to get a pic of the chat.

    Sorry for the double and triple posts.

    Hi there.
    Could you post a screenshot of your paypal transactions to prove you never got the payment?

    This is my transaction history. It's not my total history, but it goes up from June of last year to June of this year (so it's pretty much most of it).

    Declined - no idea why this report wasn't done so then
    No evidence at all to review.
