Link to scammer's Sythe profile: project eden http://www.sythe.org/members/194921-project-eden.html
Briefly explain the trade: The trade is listed in the thread that he bound himself to the exchange was for $2000
How they scammed:
Payment was never sent through paypal
Proof that you were not talking to an impostor: http://www.sythe.org/other-games/1594613-b-defender-texel-fighters.html
Trade was being updated in the thread which the imposter was also posting in
After the goods were transferred into his ownership the user never responded.
He confirmed the SEF values and never responded again.
The scam is pretty much a clean getaway as i had to accept his offer in game and the trade history does not show inside of the game D.O.T. Defender of Texel.
I have saved the thread in a PDF in the event the user attempts to edit his posts.
Please also note that he was the one who told me to sign up and post on the website himself, I am not sure if this is an elaborate ruse for me to believe that this was a legitimate transaction. Screen shots will follow shortly.
Trade screenshots:

Member used kik to IM the majority of the messages however he explicitly told me to post here on the website for documentation purposes.
I have given the individual 24 hours to respond to me and he has yet to message me back since the trade yesterday. The reason I even believed that this transaction was legitimate is due to the fact he had vouches on the forum itself backed by two individuals with a credible history.
