Accepted Report: 76561198796899070 - ([DOTA2] Dota2 Items)

Scam Report

Report Type: [Money] Steam Wallet fraud
Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

Accused profile: 76561198796899070

Victim profile: 76561198091698276

What happened? Description:

He added me on 1st of August to trade for a giftable only dota set: https://dota2.gamepedia.com/Fortified_Fabricator
We waited for a month until I could gift him the set. When it came to doing the trade, I asked him to send over the agreed amount as Steam wallet credit. He agreed to do the same but refused to go first.
Also in the past he told a bunch of lies to gain my confidence, which he did. Since I was in a rush and he assured me he isn't trying to scam me, I went first. After which he just stopped replying and is not holding up his side of the bargain.​

Provide Evidence:

As soon as the transaction was done he made his profile private. However there is evidence in dota that I gifted him the set. I can also upload my steam wallet transaction history if required to confirm that I did not receive any payment as agreed upon.​

tinker 1 sept 25 euro:
I spoke with hexor, probably u will be the guy for the giveaways. We will buy from you all skins that we need. Also we will give you money to buy arcana (every week probably) and send it to our winners. You will earn a 15% of each giveaway(for example if we give you 30 euro for an arcana that costs 30euro, you will get an extra 4.5 euro for you), is that price okay for you? You will do all the job with gift/trade etc with our winners.

[21:33]
Formatter:
dude
are you planning on paying?

Okay, does a shot of his inventory having the item count?

Also, he has since made his profile private so I am unable to go through his inventory. However, a part of the set is present in the featured hero section of his profile, and also there's the dota feed which shows him being the recipient of the gift and him unwrapping it, which proved the transaction did occur from my side.

You can see that one of the set items is on his featured hero tinker. Check this for reference: https://dota2.gamepedia.com/Fortified_Fabricator
Also, there's no way to purchase parts of the sets, they're available as a whole set only, so individual items of the set cannot be gifted.
Thus this proves that he has the rest of the set, and if you open the image I uploaded in my previous post, it clearly shows that I gifted that set to him in feed with the correct time stamp.
So far, I've proved that
a) He has the set
b) He got the set from me
c) I did not receive the payment he promised

What else do I need to prove?
