Hi, recently I was scammed on CSGO for my skin in game that was worth a lot of money. He sent me an invoice and since I was new to Paypal, I did not know that the Paypal thing was a scam.

 

So is there anything to do to make the money transfer or can i just do nothing? Also, the details of the the seller has been included. in the photo showing the inovice of the scam.

I would suggest you edit your post as you are not allowed to name and shame on this public board.

 

Sorry but the money can't appear as he has not sent any >>>>

 

If it was marked as an invoice then its probably a scam doing the rounds as its been sent by a buyer and altered to look as though he has paid you.

Signs its a scam are >>>

its an invoice BUT sellers send invoices not buyers

marked as paid

marked as gift

says payment won't show in your balance for eg 24 hours

can't be chargedback.

Paypal NEVER tell you to send anything until the funds are showing in your paypal account balance.

Paypal payments are more or less instant.

Paypal will never tell you that a payment can't be subject to a chargeback.
