    , and used an impersonated middle man account:https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197960649220/

    How long have you been trading for? @sjy24
    Did you know this user you traded with for a while or no?

    No. The buyer added me 3 days ago. The middle man is one from the link he sent to me and I added him just before the trade.

    This is the first time I ever trade with this guy and the Arcana is the only item I gave him.

    You mean how long I have been trading?

    I'm not a professional seller, which means I normally don't trade items with other people. This is my new account and all of the items in this account are from my previous account. I buy and sell items in steam market for a couple years but I haven't done deals directly with people without using steam.

    The buyer saw my listing on steam market and added me a couple days before our trade. I didn't know how paypal trade works and would like to give it a try. I hope this answer your questions.

    Now I know any trade without using steam is at risk of being scammed. I learned my lesson and I really want to keep other from being scammed by that person.@Horse

    What previous account? Issue is you are a new account reporting someone for something you should have been more than aware of possibly happening if you are a professional seller.

    You are right. But the thing is I'm not a professional seller. I simply transferred items from my another account to this new account because I'm playing dota2 recently with the new account. What happened was I was hoping to sell a couple items on steam market and that guy contacted me. I was trying to see if trade with paypal transaction is working out or not and I got scammed. That's why I only trade one item cause I know there is risk.

    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History showing for sure the trade in question(NOT TRADE OFFER!!)- open this with a web browser, move your mouse over the users name in question so it shows up the hypertext popup URL at the bottom of the screen - take the screen shot DO NOT edit it in anyway and upload. Also need a screen shot of your Paypal ACTIVITY (not Summary) for several days beginning with the date before this trade..full screen DO NOT edit this shot in anyway. Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Also please review this screenshot guide should you require assistance:
