Accepted Report: 76561198152982497 - ([CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items)

Scam Report

Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

Accused profile: 76561198152982497

Victim profile: 76561197961667389

What happened? Description:

Scammer took 3+ weeks of messaging me about trades, offering me paypal cash. He even helped me solve an API scam that happened to me, and gave me advice on how to avoid API scams. He used discord and screen shared, showing $690 in paypal being sent to me. When I sent the skins, he blocked me, ended the call, and of course had all my items. He talked extensively about the best ways to avoid scams, while scamming me and gaining my trust. His long trade history, steam level, +rep comments, and inventory all helped convince me slowly over time.​

Provide Evidence:

Attached a few screenshots of chat history, my paypal received history for last 30 days, inventory history, discord proof of his desire to buy skins, as well as screenshot of the call that happened where he screenshared and showed me his paypal account sending me cash.

Tainen:
was on vacation. yellowstone

[Monday 11:13 AM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Oh s✿✿✿ nice
I wont be home for a bit
you want to work out a deal over dc?

[Monday 11:16 AM]
Tainen:
yeah sure
I work from home so I'm away lots

[Monday 11:22 AM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Ah okay my bad man, did you enjoy it?

[Monday 11:27 AM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
ive seen your inventory has grown, are those for sale too by chance?

[Monday 11:34 AM]
Tainen:
potentially. I bought several things that I wanted for myself, so some I will keep.
I'm looking to pick up an ursus somehow.

[Monday 11:34 AM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
You can use the money I give you and you could deposit that money into cs.money and you would be able to buy a nice ursus
They have a large selection and when you use irl money there's like a 10-15% discount i think if not more.

[Monday 11:35 AM]
Tainen:
yeah that might be a route
why do you want to buy from me instead of doing that?
you'd get better prices with that cash discount

[Monday 11:37 AM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Money isn't an issue for me being straight up so i'd rather help the individuals instead of a big entity
such as them.
What skins were you looking to keep?

[Monday 11:43 AM]
Tainen:
fuel injector, mecha m4, one of my usp's, loyal legion glock...

[Monday 11:44 AM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Any chance I can buy the fuel injector but not the rest?
Sent a pic on dc of the ones I would like to buy

[Monday 11:56 AM]
Tainen:
I suppose, I mean if you give me enough to buy another one

[Monday 11:57 AM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Name a price for all of the skins that are in the pic I sent you and we can work from your price.

[Monday 11:58 AM]

[Monday 4:30 PM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Would you just do 680?

[Monday 4:30 PM]
Tainen:
I guess but I'd want to do the trade in stages
for safety

[Monday 4:31 PM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
So we dont run into our last issue

[Yesterday, 4:31 PM]
Tainen:


[Yesterday, 4:31 PM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Click on the profile and make sure its mine and check the steam level
another way is to check that it says ive been on steam for 5+ years
and if it does those then we are fine.

[Yesterday, 4:32 PM]
Tainen:
yep. but also I'm just cautious of paypal trades too I guess, my overall trading rack record is 0/1
lost a good 450 or whatever it was already. :/

[Yesterday, 4:33 PM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
Yea I get that, but then again it's nothing from my end, you had gotten your api key stolen from a fishy site you logged onto
Sadly

[Yesterday, 4:33 PM]
Tainen:
yep. I know

[Yesterday, 4:33 PM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:

[Yesterday, 5:16 PM]
Tainen:
yeah sure. can we do several smaller trades and paypal sends
not comfortable transfering 690 worth of goods at once
in case it goes wrong

[Yesterday, 5:17 PM]
✪TeddyFromBadrep Cs.money:
We can do smaller trades if you want sure but nothing can go wrong aslong as you check the steam level.

well you got me. gg.

please find the attached screenshot of my trade inventory history, showing the picture of the trade in question, in a browser, with the mouse hovering over the name of the trade recipient, with the hypertext URL popup at the bottom. It is not editted in any way.

please find attached completely unaltered screenshot of paypal ACTIVITY page (not summary, not received).

here is an additional photo of steam chat, with the EXACT items in question listed and their steam value at that time, and his offer of 690 for all of them, again in steam chat.
