    Chat is pretty self explanatory, he tried to buy my unusual with PayPal, offered to go first.
    I queried one of the people who left rep on his profile, they said that he had disputed his payment.
    I mentioned this to him and never got another response from him, followed by him going offline/deleting me.

    So yeah, obvious PayPal chargeback attempt.

    Code:
    iMagoo B>Keys: hi
    iMagoo B>Keys: how can I help?
    Maurizio: Hello
    Maurizio: you sell spartan for paypal?
    iMagoo B>Keys: yes
    Maurizio: how much?
    iMagoo B>Keys: $270 USD negotiable
    Maurizio: hm
    Maurizio: go for 250 and i going first
    iMagoo B>Keys: do you have reputation?
    Maurizio: ofc
    Maurizio: see my profile
    iMagoo B>Keys: any source OP reputation?
    Maurizio: nope
    iMagoo B>Keys: you have 0 hours of TF2 on record, yet you want to pay $250 for an unusual?
    iMagoo B>Keys: all of your rep is from the last 4 days
    Maurizio: yep
    iMagoo B>Keys: sorry mate, but something doesn't add up
    iMagoo B>Keys: your account is too new, with bugger all games
    iMagoo B>Keys: I feel sorry for those people if they truly sold you buds
    iMagoo B>Keys: unless it's fake rep
    iMagoo B>Keys: do you have another account with reputation?
    Maurizio: no
    iMagoo B>Keys: will you participate in another form of payment, such as bitcoins?
    Maurizio: paypal only
    Maurizio: sending funds with note
    iMagoo B>Keys: notes don't mean anything to PayPal
    iMagoo B>Keys: you've disputed payments with at least one other seller
    iMagoo B>Keys: so
    iMagoo B>Keys: your obvious attempt is not going to fool me
    iMagoo B>Keys: why are you scamming people?
    Maurizio is now Offline.

    I talked to sMokey, he has said that one of his payments was disputed, which lead me to question Maurizio. Most of that rep has since been deleted from his profile.

    I suggest you tell sMokey to create his own SR report as well, so this guy can get double-marked.

    Marked the guy for the scam attempts, but it would be great to get proof of the chargeback.

    I'll leave this thread open for the timebeing.
