So I’ve got a “sugar daddy” called Brad telling me he wants to send me $5000 through my PayPal account but for the payment to go through I have to buy a £50 steam voucher so the payment can be approved as it’s currently pending, also told me that after my first payment he will up the money to $7000 and I won’t have to buy another voucher for the payment to go through he added a screenshot on the PayPal page which shows him wanting to send me the money and also a message on the bottom stating the payment is pending awaiting the steam voucher payment? I can’t help but feel like this isn’t legit amd don’t want to be scammed can anyone help me on this matter

Got a message on insta stating that he wanted me to be his sugar baby, and that he would pay me weekly allowance of 5000$. After i decided to give it a try, he told me that the payment is pending and that i need to buy razor gold cards, for gaming and stuff and send him the codes. I did so, 50$ each ( 2 cards ) and he finally sent me the payment which he upgraded ti 7000$ and said i needed to but 2 razor gold gift cards for 100$ to receive the payment, and told me that this is the only time, and afterwards it will be automatic. This is where i stopped and said no. His name is Alexander [removed] so if any of you see his name, block him immediately!!!
