    What happened? Description:
    I'm a co-owner of tf2depot.com and Customer support manager too.
    Our Steam Community: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/tf2-depot

    Let me officially explain our problem.

    Two (or possible more) Trading Accounts of tf2depot.com was affected by scam from 76561198002436189.

    2nd Steam account:

    | steamname: Aut'O'Buy - Out of Stock
    | steam3ID: [U:1:98567116]

    What happened?

    User 76561198002436189 aka "sleeze18" was registered on our website tf2depot.com at 04/18/2016. He bought the TF2 items, in small volumes, from time to time. Also, he looked as an absolutely ordinary client.

    List of scammer's PayPal transfers:

    Screen 2 (Payments_history_list_2.jpg)

    Suddenly, 9/24/2017, without presentation of any claims and without contacting the administration of the tf2depot.com, this violator has opened a large number of cases for a return of the money, charged off his account. At once.

    The list of scammer's opened claims - Table 3 (Refunds_list.jpg).

    Typical claim (all others - fully identical) .

    Screen 4 (Transaction_details.jpg)

    If there are doubts, we can provide more screenshots on the canceled Payments.

    As it seems to me, there are all signs of fraud: successful trade for more than a year and full refund for all last fully identical transactions (for maximum time period, what is allowed by PayPal).

    We have too many automated transactions per day so we can provide only last 2 screenshots of his transactions with our trading Bots.

    Also, we provide the full list of the violator's IP address, from the moment of his first registration.
