    Description:
    I was added by this guy not more than an hour ago. He offered to buy my Rainbow Six Seige copy for Paypal money of 40$. I asked for a rep thread, and he provided several rep threads with some being in screenshots. I was in a hurry to go to have lunch + My net connection was crapping out, so I failed to see the already pending SR report, and we went ahead with the transaction. He pushed towards going second alone. I relented, and he took the copy and ran. While I cannot get my copy back, I also lost all I had earned in the last 3 days. Please ban the guy as soon as possible, and if possible, ask for a trade ban from Valve.

    @gag6357@gag6357

    Thank you for the report.

    To continue processing your report, we also require:
    - a screenshot of your PayPal transaction history showing transactions one month prior to the scam (November 26 to December 26)

    For your own privacy, you can place the screenshot between a [ showtogroups] tag (take out the extra space) so only trade moderators can view the screenshot.


    Reminder:
    - All screenshots must be UNCROPPED and UNEDITED. The blanking of Steam Account ID is okay.
    - URL bars should always be shown when applicable
    - All screenshots should be uploaded to Fortress of Gamers - File Hosting and linked here

    How to display Steam URL bar within Steam Client:
    - Right click Steam taskbar icon
    - Select "Settings"
    - Select "Interface" within the settings list
    - Check the "Display Steam URL address bar when available" option
