What happened? Description:

The scammer (Mamida) messaged me about a Falchion Knife Slaughter with the name tag 'King Crimson', I had previously listed the knife for around $200 USD on the Steam market, but I removed it from the market, shortly after I removed the knife listing the scammer added me as a friend and messaged me. I had no previous contact with this person prior to this incident. He then messaged me saying that he would like to purchase my knife, I said that we could do the payment transaction over PayPal (looking back on this, I should have blocked him immediately but oh well it happened). He then went on insisting he was trustworthy as he had a large steam inventory and a twitch channel with over 10k followers (Now it is at 8k followers on 1/28/2021 his twitch name is zuraba_csgo, I don't know if this was relevant or not but I included it anyway). I eventually agreed to the trade, my knife for 195 USD that was going to be sent through Paypal. He was even streaming the transaction on twitch and I was watching through the stream. I sent the knife through the trade and he never sent the money. After all of this, he blocked me and I cannot message him anymore.​

Provide Evidence:

Before I accepted anything I recorded everything from before the trade went down to when he blocked me and took my knife without payment.
I uploaded the incident to youtube and it shows everything from the chat logs, to his inventory, to even the knife being in my inventory then to his.

Here is the link:

My channel is called Rudawg44 on youtube if you don't want to click on the link, it is the only video uploaded there.

I have attached the chat screenshots, PayPal activity screenshot, the trade log page showing the trade that happened, and a picture of his steam profile after the scam took place of him showing off my knife in his inventory. And his screen is even shown on his stream which I was recording, he accepted the knife on his end, screenshotted it, ended the stream, and blocked me, all this can be seen on the youtube video on my channel.

The chat logs are labeled #1-#11 in case they get out of order.​

OK here are the screenshots, for the Paypal one, I hope I got the right section/area.

Ok here are the screenshots with the taskbar, I had the setting that minimizes the taskbar that is why you couldn't see it, and for the steam one, I was in google, not steam browser.

Sorry about that

Here are the screenshots, I took the steam one in browser and sorted the trades for only falchion knife so that my username is also showing, and for the Paypal one, I set the dates from the beginning of this week (1/24/21) to today (1/29/21).
