Scammer. Photo stolen from eBay and price is way too low.

Had an issue with FurnitureMaker. That account appears to be removed. Basically I sent payment and they refunded immediately. Long story short they were asking for a screenshot of the transaction on PayPal. At that point I was over it and reported it on PayPal and here.

For future reference, what is the deal with screenshots of PayPal?
(I'm on other forums and have not seen this issue before)

Do not send screenshots of PayPal - it's a scam.

I only started posting in this thread after I got scammed a few months ago. Has it always been this prevalent?

No, but it's been pretty bad the last year or two.
