Briefly explain the trade: $375 for angelic minis on Gaia Online

How they scammed (short version) : This guy claimed he would send money first and then sent a fake receipt to me and said that it would take 2-3 days for the money to show up

Proof that you were not talking to an impostor: Screenshots are from sythe





How they scammed (long version) :
This started a few days ago when WhatTheGaia wanted to buy some gold from me. I started to get sketched out and backed out when I saw this

Apparently he had stolen some screenshots and was attempting to sell things he did not have. So I really didn't want to trade this guy. He started spamming me with messages after he saw the screenshot I had posted in my previous scam report. Finally I told him I would trade him if he went first or we used a middle man.

He started making excuses and then he went on to my vouch thread and said

Not recommended. He says he wants to sell the gold and then bails and doesnt respond to my messages.

I didn't really care at all, I thought it was the end of it.

A few minutes later he sends me a message saying he will go first, but he says something that makes me uneasy. He says that it will "take 2-3 days" for the money to show up.

I know it doesn't take 2-3 days for a paypal payment to show up. So finally, he sends me a fake receipt after like 20 minutes. I check my paypal, there is no money in my account and I send him this screenshot.

He then tells me

The rest is just him trying to rush me into accepting the trade. If anymore screen shots are needed, let me know.
