    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198236640132

    Victim profile: 76561198047862186

    What happened? Description:
    To be clear this was an attempted scam. I caught on before any transactions were made. I posted that I wanted to trade/sell a knife from cs:go. He posted, saying he would buy it via paypal, and he would go first. I accepted his offer. $130 for the knife via paypal. I sent him my paypal email, he offered a trade for me to put items in the trade just to show that i still had them. He said he sent the money, and he actually sent me an invoice for $130. As in he tried to bill me so that I would send him money and then trade him my knife. I noticed this before I clicked "pay invoice" and was not actually scammed. I mentioned that paypal said "bill to" and he instantly removed me.​

    Provide Evidence:
    The images I've uploaded are of the steam chat, my paypal account with the cancelled transaction, and a screenshot of his profile next to the chat window with the matching avatar and steam name.​
