    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198161087506

    Victim profile: 76561198809414908

    What happened? Description:
    Me and the scammer met in the Fire Powered trade server while the scammer added me saying he wanted my "Screaming Tiger Mannrobics Taunt". This item goes for around 40$. He said he will pay me with Paypal and told me to go first and so I did then he unadded me and blocked me as shown in the video that I posted as evidence. This transaction was attempted multiple times before thus giving him my trust. Then when the time came for him to "buy the item", he runs off. Please do something about this and I hope I provided enough evidence to ban this guy! Thanks and have a good day!​

    Provide Evidence:
    I was going to submit a video but I couldn't because of how long it took to upload. So here are some screenshots that were in the video. These photos DO contain the requirements that are needed to ban this guy. The first photo shows that he had agreed to our transaction. Second image was me giving my taunt to him so he can pay me my money through Paypal. Third image shows that he has now accepted the item. Forth image shows that my Paypal had not received my 40$ that I had asked for. Fifth and sixth image shows that he has now unadded and blocked me. Seventh image was to show that my item was gone and have not received back since. Finally, the last image shows their profile after the scam and that he had changed his name.

    I hope he gets what he deserves!​

    I wasn't able to pull up any chat logs because since the scammer had blocked me I had no access to the chat after it closed. The video does contain a chat conversations. But I do hope the video is enough evidence. The video clearly shows him running off.

    @Legend 9 We don't review videos - but is this ALL of the chat you had between you and this user? Just want to make sure I have everything.
    We also do not punish users here just FYI - our purpose is to educate not punish.

    Please follow up and then I'll ask for something more.

    Heres the rest of the chat log from the beginning to the end. Last image was just me talking trash because of how mad I was. Hope this was enough. :)
    Btw If this report happens to go throw, what would happen to the scammer?

    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 HEREā€¦NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Also please review this screenshot guide should you require assistance:

    Are you on windows?Appears you are and the taskbar is hidden/cut off - that isn't full screen without it enabled.
    Please redo them with that showing.

    Sorry I don't know how to make the taskbar show. The snipping tool doesn't work for me so I have to use the Game Bar to take screenshots. If I really HAVE TOO just let me know so I can download some program.

    Print screen does nothing. I'm pressing it but I don't see the photo in my files. Am I doing something wrong?
