Briefly explain the trade:
Selling me a TF2 Steam Account for 5$.

How He scammed:
Saw him post that he was sellling a TF2 account, sent him a PM on sythe while adding his MSN. Talked to him a bit, while searching his previous posts/threads. Nothing too fishy so I decided to go ahead, figuring not many would scam over 5$.

(Foolish mistake! hah. Lesson learned, even the smallest amounts count. I don't do trades on here that i'm not prepared to lose anyway, so I'm not upset. Just hope to help others on here to not get scammed.)


I.M. + PM Box PM stating the trade


Account I was supposed to recieve (He mentioned in PM that SCII was just on his computer, and not part of the steam account)

(Small screenshot, cause it was the screenshot he sent me)

Account Recieved instead


Shows Vac Banned Status on Account. Along with proof of my payment to him


Screenshots of I.M. with him.


Screenshot of his account on sythe showing his I.M. details
(Took it after trade, in case he was planning on removing it from his account profile to cut ties with the I.M. account I was talking to)


Better Screenshot of my sending of funds to him


(Not related to trade)

Don't know if this is enough evidence to warrant a ban, but I just want others to not be scammed. As I said, I don't care about 5$. This was my first steam trade, and my first time being scammed after many successful trades here on Sythe. Figured my turn was coming soon enough.
(Also first report, so bare with me mods if it wasn't up to your standards =x)

 

Thanks for the easy report, banned.
