What happened? Description:

Offered to buy 2 unusual hats with IRL funds. After I traded him the items, he deleted me from his friends list and turned his profile private.​

Provide Evidence:

He added me to offer to buy my 2 unusuals for 114 euros. I was skeptical, yet he had a high steam level, a clean steamrep and lots of games/items on TF2. I have no rep, so I decided to go first, and after I traded him the items he deleted me and set his profile to private.

I'm not sure if this matters, but he also has some negative reputation on his backpack.tf profile, which I can link. (I checked it and thought that backpack showed both positive and negative reviews automatically He has A LOT of negative rep on there saying he is a scammer.

I'm sad to loose my items, I spent a lot of time getting them, but as long as this f✿✿✿✿er is marked I'll be happy.

Will keep the relevant windows open, can provide further evidence if necessary.​

The same person has just contacted me for pretty much the same purpose, he was interested up until I said he'd have to go first, at that point he changed his mind as he was "out of funds". I'm sorry this happened to you.

I do recommend you also screenshot your Paypal balance currently with transaction history (Just censor names) to help you out further here. Good luck!
