What is the dispute about?
Thirak stole my Fate Grand Order account by submitting an invoice for the purchase price of $480 (marked 'paid') to my PayPal account, along with a fake screenshot showing that the $480 had been sent to my account. The invoice "terms and conditions" stated that the "payment" may take up to 24 hours to reflect in my PayPal balance. However, despite completing the transaction over a week ago, the $480 has not been added to my PayPal balance. Upon further research, it appears this method of submitting an invoice to the seller to make it appear as though their item had been legitimately purchased is a known scam (see https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensiveTrade/comments/2dj2m5/psapaypal_invoice_scam/).

Please ban this user to prevent him from scamming more members. Thank you.

Account Recalls

Most account recalls have little proof. To get more evidence, please open a support ticket to attempt to recover the account BEFORE opening a dispute thread.

Did the seller say he is the original owner? (provide proof)
What account information did the seller provide you at the time of sale? (ID, SQA, etc)
How long did you have the account before it was recalled?
If you have a support ticket about this recall, please post screenshots of it.

How do you know it's him? You've only given us the discord name but I couldn't make a connection to the account.

Do you have the paypal email from which the invoice was sent?


P.S. checked paypal email there was no connection. Waiting for an update.

No PayPal email was provided with the invoice. However, the name "Noah" in the invoice "terms and conditions" (https://imgur.com/ECqC7J0) matches the name in the fake payment screenshot (https://imgur.com/msuTbD2). Additionally, you can see that my PayPal transaction history does not include the $480 that was allegedly sent to me.

If it would be helpful, I can provide the timestamp of when the invoice was sent to me to prove that the invoice was issued at the same time that I was talking to this user. Let me know.

Thanks.
 
I mean how is Thirak connected to any of these paypal addresses or names? How do you know that its the same guy? I tried to make a connection between the info you provided but I couldn't.

Ah, apologies for the misunderstanding, and thank you for clarifying. I've added a screenshot of the original EpicNPC Private Message that initiated the Discord conversation: https://imgur.com/XyO76CJ
