    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561197962332180

    Victim profile: 76561197961820390

    What happened? Description:
    I offered that I had an item to trade on reddit.com/dota2trade in the chat room. I was messaged by 2 users and decided to go with Desolater77(https://www.reddit.com/user/Desolator77) who's steam username is Caternity. User Caternity (SteamID64 = 76561198272623616) offered to buy my ES Golden GravelMaw and pay via Paypal with a middleman. The middle man Dark Zone (SteamID64 = 76561197962332180) responded and said he would be the middle man. I transferred the item to his inventory after Caternity asked for my paypal info and said that he would transfer the agreed amount. Once I transferred the item Dark Zone said he will release it as soon as I received funds. They both stopped replying afterwards and it has now been more that 24 hours since and I haven't heard anything from either.​

    Provide Evidence:
    These are screenshots of both of my conversations with Caternity and with Dark Zone. I also included the trade history and hovered over the account name for Dark Zone to show that it was the user mentioned before. I have also included screenshots of both their accounts.​

    Your supposed to report the user you were FIRST in contact with - not the middleman if both users were involved which clearly they were.
    | steamname: Caternity
    | steam3ID: [U:1:312357888]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:156178944
    | steamID64: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198272623616
    | customURL: https://steamcommunity.com/id/CaternityWannaBe
    | steamrep: https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198272623616

    Also always get a FULL screenshot of all users profiles WHILE friends for extra in case we need to see that as well.

    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. Also need a screen shot of your Paypal ACTIVITY (not Summary) for several days beginning with the date before this trade..full screen DO NOT edit this shot in anyway. Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Also please review this screenshot guide should you require assistance:

    I have added screenshots for both user profiles in full. Also added a screenshot of my paypal account and of the inventory while hovering over the user.
    Please let me know if I should add anything more? I am not able to edit the first post and change the accused person?
