    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198301502220

    Victim profile: 76561198330162043

    What happened? Description:
    Well I was selling tf2 keys on the market when I was messaged by the scammer where they asked me to befriend them, then asked me to sell them keys, they offered 3 dollars a key, and I would buy and sell them 32 keys, and they would transfer me 100$ via paypal for it, once I got them the keys, they took them, blocked me from messages, and changed their profile pic to nami from one piece, without paying, If you check their previous names, you may be able to see them named as nami​

    Provide Evidence:
    I included a jpeg of the request for me to befriend them, the entire chat we had, them unfriending me and being marked as "not friends" block from communicating, the still pending paypal request, and the accepted trades of me giving them keys​

    First off don't train the screenshots like that - just do multiple screens in the future.
    Now I looked and I do not see the paypal information you gave the user to send funds to...unless I missed it.
    can you point that out pls

    No- not what I asked for.
    I'm asking where in the chat logs did you give the user the information to send funds to. Paypal for example requires an email address or paypal.me address/location.
    I do not see where you gave this user that information in the chat logs.
    Please point it out.

    Ok full screenshot of that payment request and a FULL screenshot of paypal activity for last 3 days till now.
    Do NOT crop screenshots - you are doing nothing but cropping and that is unacceptable.
    read this link

    Make sure you understand how to make proper screenshots otherwise I can't review this.

    Truly I am sorry, I read through the whole thing and I think I got it, I'll stop cropping them. I took 3 screenshots, the full screenshot, and two of my history.

    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History (thru a computer not mobile) 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.

    That isn't correct - I asked for trade inventory history not offers.
