    Did I Get Scammed?

    i just recently placed a topic about buying a TF2 account.
    a user contacted me on MSN and he had this e-mail: [email protected].
    He showed me a link with his vouches, so i trusted him. Everything went well, i paid him via paypal, then he sent the account details via MSN, afterwards, he immediately logged off. So i tried inputting the name and password in steam but they are not valid!

    Can anyone help me with this?
    Who is this person?
    How can i get my money back?

    Always request a PM he could of been a imposter or a banned user. It looks like youve been scammed and theres nothing the sythe community can do for you expect to teach you to be smart next time ;) You can try disputing the payment Via Paypal, but they takes a little bit.

    problem is, i had to do this trade on e-buddy, which can't save the conversations :mad:

    I can show the paypal payment and the username and password that he gave me? or isnt that enough?
