    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198015637929

    Victim profile: 76561198101461982

    What happened? Description:
    Scammer added me to trade for a skin, offered paypal. I said only if they go first, they eventually obliged.
    Waiting for an email form paypal or from my PP page to update to confirm the trade, I decide to check my junk folder.
    It was a lame phishing attempt.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I've still got chat open, if there's anything you need to verify just let me know.​

    GIBBY:
    hello!

    [15:41]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    You added me yeah
    ?

    [15:41]
    GIBBY:
    yea i am interested in ur scout dragon fire and your bloodsport

    [15:42]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    Alrighty, my bloodsport isn't tradeable for another 4 days

    [15:42]
    GIBBY:
    how much u want for it

    [15:43]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    I'm looking for 19 keys for bloodsport or 10k for dragonfire, or skins equivalent.
    I'm negotiable

    [15:43]
    GIBBY:
    okay
    can i pay paypal

    [15:44]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    Um...
    Do you have rep to show?

    [15:44]
    GIBBY:
    i mean ive done this s✿✿✿ in the past but idk what else i cna show

    [15:46]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    Honestly, I could only do that if you went first, this way you can charge back through paypal. If we did it me first, you could get my items and there's nothing I can do, Valve won't refund items anymore

    [15:46]
    GIBBY:
    so u want me to go first
    i dont charge back i dont even know how

    [15:48]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    Well yes I do because if I scam you, you can get your money back through paypal. If you scam me, there's nothing that can be done.
    It's called a dispute on paypal it's very easy to do, it's in the payments seciton somewhere

    [15:49]
    GIBBY:
    allright
    so send me your paypal info
    send me ur paypal email

    [15:51]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    [email protected]
    Remember bloodsport isn't tradeable yet, 10K = $32.5 AUD

    [15:53]
    GIBBY:
    ok so as soon as you see the email that paypal sent saying i sent the moeny through u accept trade

    [15:53]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    Yeah just let me know when you send it so I can check

    [15:53]
    GIBBY:
    can we get a trade ready

    [15:54]
    [Trading]MistiK:

    [15:55]
    GIBBY:

    [15:56]
    GIBBY:
    ok
    please dont scam me after i send the money tho

    [15:57]
    [Trading]MistiK:
    You can dispute it and use chat logs and trade logs as evidence. Btw, if you're buying skins off people with paypal, you should start a cash rep thread, it's a dedicated steam group to show rep, I'll find the link for you.

    [15:59]
    GIBBY:

    Ok now what I'm having issues is proving identity to the accused. None of the screenshots you provided were of the users profile WHILE friends or what I can tell since you left a chat box over much of it. Therefore there is no way to know if you reported the correct user and not an impersonator.
    So follow next set of instructions:
    issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the popup of the profile. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's Full Screen, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Please review this screenshot guide should you need assistance:
