There isn't a post from either you or @Tallink on LrugDord's MM thread. Where did you add Zuniga#6085 Discord from? Was it on his threads, via PMs?

 

[DamianL]

I put my discord in my thread where I said that I buy an account, he added me saying : Imgur but LrugDord pmed us both with pm's from our discord chat : Imgur @Gladiator

 

[Gladiator]

@DamianL that still doesn't give me his Discord. Also Lrug mentions in his PM that he'll require both of you to post on the thread

Neither of you did, meaning he didn't MM any trades between you guys. So far to me it seems a random person added you claiming to be @Tallink, linked you his vouch page and you went along with the trade.

@DamianL sent me the IP of the compromised gmail used and it isn't a match with @Tallink. I've also checked @Tallink's threads and PMs and they all come back with one Discord, which is:
Sasha#4840
UID: 353976890169622528

There's been numerous impostor scams from this same person so I've gone ahead and added messages on @Tallink's profile: Tallink & vouch page:
Tallink Vouches to hopefully protect any future victims falling for the same impostor scam.

@DamianL
Sorry for your loss, it seems you were impostor scammed. Please go through the following to ensure it doesn't happen again:

1.) ALWAYS request a sythe PM before every trade to make sure you're talking to the correct person
2.) Discord Impostors almost always have nitro, which allows them to change their Discord Discrims (#) to copy those of legitimate users
3.) You did not check to verify the Discord UID of the person you were trading. It's very easy to check this yourself, simply turn on developer mode, right click and copy ID. Explained in this guide here: Discord PM Template
