    Victim profile: 76561198047068438

    What happened? Description:
    Long story short... got chargebacked today via Paypal for $18.5.

    The transaction happened on 17.03.2015, so more than 40 days ago. That's why I don't really remember the full details of it. Was selling bunch of stuff as usual here (http://redd.it/2zc36o), andrewz99 left a comment, that he wants to buy my PA Arcana.

    I always do some background checks, so I saw that his reddit profile is pretty old, he had some topics of selling stuff like DC Hook (http://redd.it/2vz8zd) for Paypal, trading Machine Head (http://redd.it/2m36we), also a topic (http://redd.it/2xh2vx) where he says he got scammed for some Nintendo s✿✿✿. His steamrep profile (http://steamrep.com/search?q=http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198042821833) seemed normal as well, an old account with lots of dota 2 hours played, higher steam profile lvl, and 110 games ... checked this calculator (https://steamdb.info/calculator/76561198042821833) as well.

    Furthermore he had (has) a steam comment in his profile for selling a drodo for paypal to a well reputable trader last October. And most importantly, his Paypal account is verified.

    Sadly I don't have the chat log saved, cause I do lots of real money trades, and he already removed me. But I'm sure that there was nothing that could have ringed a bell, cause I'm a really really cautious person, when I accept Paypal as a method of payment.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I'll upload all the screens that I can provide:

    1. Screenshot of the steam profile of the scammer.
    2. Screenshot from the Paypal transaction and the Chargeback.
    3. Screenshot from my Inventory History, highlighting his name.
    4. Screenshot from my reddit topic, where he commented that he's adding me for trade (again his name is highlighted).​
