Archived 76561198075020518 (attempts fake payment)

Messaged me saying he was interested in purchasing one of my hooks for paypal (yet he's in Russia, warning sign #1), I agree to this and ask if he wishes to use a middleman - saw my rep and didn't think it was necessary. We agreed to price ($54 USD) and he said he had to go off to work to get paid. I closed chat at this point because it seemed legitimate enough (800 hours of Dota, looking back now I notice his account is only 5 months old).

... then instead of going to "work" he played a few matches of dota (warning sign #2) - after 3 matches he says he sent payment and that I should give him the hook, of course no payment is to be found. I asked him for supporting evidence of screenshot of his transaction or even his name but he did not give either... whoops.

paypal log of last few days with last part of his chat:

Might be easiest to give him a warning as I cannot provide the first half of the discussion log from before he went to "work".

Did you actually trade the Hook to him? If so, reply to my message with a screenshot of your trading history, thank you in advance.

I did not trade him anything - unless it's an exceptional circumstance the person buying from me goes first with payment.

He lied about sending me the money and refused to provide me with his paypal email address or screenshot of his side of the transaction, so I did not trade him the hook.

oops shoulda quoted you, hope you get the update notice

I did now, thank you for replying, a SR admin will look into this when he / she can.

The guy already defrauded others and is now trade banned in Steam... :/
