    Victim profile: 76561198040224815

    What happened? Description:
    I posted on TF2Outpost that I was selling my backpack, about a day later, Masherbroz added me and offered me $240 usd for it. That amount was $50 less than what my bp is worth at full value, so I thought it was a good offer so I accepted it. We had to wait 5 days because steam guard was active for me because I reset my password because I forgot it after not using steam for some time. Eventually we traded, and I put in my backpack and he had to buy a backpack expander, so I waited for that, then we re traded, I went first (Since he had more paypal rep than me). He called me with the steam talk function (I don't know what it is called). While this happened I checked him on steam rep and saw that he had 2 reports, but both were monthes old and seemed to have been almost forgotten about, so I thought they were just false reports. I brought this up with me and he went through a long story about it. He said the first people that reported him, he sharked for a $250 hat, and the 2nd person gave him the wrong email.
    I was troubled by this so after I started recording the trade right after I pressed accept so it shows me trading my backpack with him and my conversation with him leaving, which I will add in the evidence tab. But after that I waited awhile to be sure that it wasn't a problem on paypal's end with a problem with the money transfer, as I type this I still have $0.00 in my paypal. If it is needed I can post the entire conversation I had with him if the video of him leaving the call and unfriending me and blocking me is not enough. Shortly after I realized he scammed me, I went on TF2 and tried to voicechat to him, he just ignored me and left the server. The video link will be added soon of the trade, I just figured the sooner I post this report the better, so as soon as the video is uploaded, I'll add that.​
