Scammer's Name: Jak Benjamin

Nature of Fraud/Scam: FAKED a Paypal receipt for buying my Elsword account. I kept my email on the account so no damage was done, but he made off with 300mil ED, equivalent to pretty much $3, lol. However, the only way for him to have taken this would have been mailing it off, so subsequently, I can simply report being hacked and them to track who the ED was sent to.
Estimated Value Lost: $3 and my precious time
Timeline Description: I got ****ed yo
Links to evidence: I made an album of our skype convo. His disappearance should be enough, but I've also lost 300mil in-game.

You can chuckle at the convo, I know I'm horribly inexperienced and I'm sure there were many signs I could have caught, but I've been desperate for money not just due to the knives but my living situation. It seems, however, that my inexperience may have saved me due to my refusal to release everything with the paypal receipt. Anyway, beware! I lost $3, time, and some sensitive information (but nothing major).
I have a question, however. Due to the nature of the event, would it be a bad idea to tell support I was simply hacked? As I mentioned above, if they believed me they could very easily track who the ED was sent to and ban them, however, due to a significant amount of information being compromised, including security questions, I presume this would be a bad idea, correct? I don't really care a ton, but I do hope they get a big whopping fist of karma.
