    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198260263740

    Victim profile: 76561198043945345

    What happened? Description:
    To start with, I am the one and only latest owner of the 1:1 Bonzo Drill hat in TF2. The scammer in this case added me and offered to buy it from me for 1.900USD, which was agreed (shown via Steam chat log generated from Steam platform). As per usual trading practice, he showed me his backpack.tf rep page and all was good at that time, and since I have lower rep than him, he asked me to go first with entering my Paypal email and then later my Unusual.

    After I did my part of sending him my Unusual, he then shared with me his Paypal payment sent to me, via images he shared with me also via Steam chat that the amount was sent. I checked on my end, saw nothing, and I also opened a ticket to question Paypal of my payment. Ultimately later, Paypal replied that the initial transaction ID the scammer showed me was not exist at all. Till this time, I realized that the scammer has put up a very mischievously sophisticated scam on me, hence I'd like to create this scammer report as an attempt to end his doing for good.

    As you can see, from backpack.tf trust, many people have been scammed by this person with high value TF2 items, and yet he is still out there, on the loose and have been transferred all of his scammed TF2 items into another secret accounts to continue his scamming journey. Please refer here: https://backpack.tf/trust/76561198260263740

    Whoever this person is, he is a very evil one and will do anything to trick you, and personally I think this person is very dangerous if he is still on the loose in the future without any proper redemption from Steamrep.

    I am willing to cooperate to get this user banned for life, so if you could, please let me know if you would need further proof and I shall comply accordingly.

    Thank you.​

    Provide Evidence:
    A) Steam conversation between me and this guy: all message generated from https://help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata/GetFriendMessagesLog, because he deleted me off and blocked me so I could not elicit old chat log with him normally.

    Please read each image from the bottom and up, all from pic #01 to #19 as the PDF file attached, and the time recorded was GMT+7.

    B) My current Paypal activity showing no sign of payment: pic #20.

    C) The scammer Paypal proof of false payment to me: pic #21.

    D) The scammer Paypal email: pic #22.

    E) Proof of me sending the trade offer via Steam: pic #23.​

    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:54pm +07 Idk bout that
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:53pm +07 I'm just thinking maybe its because of the amount of money? Maybe paypal finds it "suspicious" or some s✿✿✿ lol
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:53pm +07 Same here. Never has this happened
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:53pm +07 Not in my experience
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:52pm +07 The holding cash thing should not exist at all
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:52pm +07 I see where you're coming from
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:52pm +07 And thats worst case in my point of view
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:52pm +07 Any lie could be used as a dispute proof later
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:51pm +07 Why would I lie to that
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:51pm +07 and I am trusting you when you say you still haven't received ^^
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:50pm +07 Hasn't been 24 hours yet, lets give it a day. If it still dosent come then we'll see how to proceed from there. I'll pass you the hat back worse case
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:49pm +07 Im getting nervous :O
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 5:49pm +07 Hmm
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:33pm +07 I dont get what they meant there
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:33pm +07 no, its from a sellers point of view
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:33pm +07 You're the one whos buying lol
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:32pm +07 Selling?
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:32pm +07 Paypal
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:32pm +07 Whose reponse was that?
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:31pm +07 I think you will get it within 24 hours
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:31pm +07 Your payment may be held in the pending balance of your PayPal account because of the following reasons:The payment you received may be considered unusual for your selling pattern.Your account was inactive for a while.There's an unusual change in selling price compared to your selling history.You're selling an item that can potentially cause dissatisfaction with customers.You only recently started selling outside of eBay, so your history with us as an off-eBay seller is still progressing. "your payment should be available 1 day after we can confirm the delivery date."
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:28pm +07 Using your transaction ID
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:27pm +07 I have also opened a dispute ticket with them on this case
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:27pm +07 Or better yet, can u ask customer service?
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:20pm +07 Very strange. Let me check up the faq on holds

    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:09pm +07 Same here, no idea what happened here. My last guess is its on hold or something because my paypal account has no money as well now
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:07pm +07 Several trades i made last time went fast

    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:06pm +07 Don't worry I'm sure it will come soon. Maybe its on hold or something? I already showed you, its sent from my side.
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:05pm +07 Still nothing on my end
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 3:05pm +07 I have a bad feeling abt this
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:57pm +07 But I'll be here, so just keep me updated if anything
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:56pm +07 Yeah I think it's just a large amount so may take some time to receive
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:56pm +07 The PP credential Huy Nguyen is correct

    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:50pm +07 I sent $1930 instead of $1900 because I didnt see fees from my end... maybe you will be charged fees

    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:41pm +07 To see both sides are on PP and correct detail
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:41pm +07 We tested that way
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:41pm +07 Last time i did with a dude
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:41pm +07 In fact, would u like to send a draft rrquest first to see it actually reaches me out first?
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:40pm +07 got it
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:40pm +07 Pls make sure u send the pp request with 1900usd to the correcr email of [email protected]
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:39pm +07 And you can see the history of that duped burning TC in his backpack :p
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:39pm +07 I see
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:39pm +07 Yep!
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:38pm +07 So the dude went first with sending u 3k via pp?
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:38pm +07 Ohh they went first obv haha, I don't usually go first unless they have more rep than me
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:38pm +07 I meant abt ur last trade involving the TC, wanted to know how it went and who went first
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:37pm +07 Send me a trade offer and I'll send the $1900 to your email stated
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:36pm +07 U go first?
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:36pm +07 How was the trade go thru?
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:35pm +07 But the second rep on my profile you can see - I sold my burning TC for 3k paypal to that guy (check his bp if you want proof)
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:34pm +07 I think just mainly buying and selling keys. Up to 500-600 at one point
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:34pm +07 Newest one, its purpose
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:33pm +07 Can u tell me what was the last trade u made on PP was about?

    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:29pm +07 Ohhh
    < blank > RR- Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:27pm +07 Oh for me it's usually trade offer first -> I'll send the amount -> both parties happy xD
    RR- < blank > Jan 2, 2021 @ 2:27pm +07 So usually what I do with real money trading is that the buyer sent me the request on Paypal
