    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198090213472

    Victim profile: 76561197961186188

    What happened? Description:
    He bought keys from me various times but then charged back one of the payments from me sending him 40 keys on November 24th 2016.​

    Provide Evidence:
    This is a weird one. He bought from me many times, high volume buyer. On February 22nd I received a paypal chargeback for one of these transactions (40 CS Go keys on November 24th). I attached the screenshot from my discussion on that day as well as the part of my inventory history.
    He is not disputing the fact that a chargeback was filed. He claimed he would pay me back until April 30th. I was very patient despite him having keys for a partial payback in the meantime:

    Today he still promised me to pay me back someday but I am tired of waiting.
    Please give him the appropriate tag.​

    @ZakMcRofl Don't accept edited screenshots - provide those that you edited (Unedited).
    Also show the paypal notice for the chargeback and paypal activity for every month in different screenshots from Nov till now. So you will be provided several screenshots all Unedited and uncropped.
    Also 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.

    Ok, just to clarify: you want me to publish my paypal history for the last 6 months for the world to see (privacy, identify theft), you want me to publish my steam account name (security risk), you want me to publish my real name, home adress and phone number (identiy theft, they were in the part of the chat i cropped out)? And you want me to put this all out for the world to see, as a high profile trader?
    How is this reasonable? Is there a private way to share these unedited with Steamrep and you censor out the critical parts? This process more harmful to the victim than it is to the scammer.
    Remember that the guy is admitting to it, in chat, today and in the screenshots I provided.

    I will share what I can but I will not publish my phone number here, sorry.

    Ok here is an updated batch of screenshots, uncropped and unedited. As per your guidelines I placed something over the areas that I feel uncomfortable sharing with the public. I am open to sharing everything privately with a mod or admin here, if there is a process for that. I am also willing to do a teamviewer session with one of the mods or admins to show the full paypal history. As a compromise, I searched for the name of the accused and showed a full list of all transactions I received from him, uncropped and unedited.

    You provided them exactly how we recommended - unedited but you dragged something up over the parts you needed hidden...good job!
    You either figured that out on your own or you read the guide in my signature that explains just that.
    My only issue is that the first two screenshots are cropped and are not full screen...I need those two again pls.
