I'm also not the only one he got. Screenshots: As much of the chat that was saved: http://puu.sh/pm2zU/e38b6ccb11.png Paypal history: http://puu.sh/pmk5T/5e7ed23ae0.png (some context: Tyson was another buyer, no scam. Dan is the one that scammed me and the 2 payments were in between Tyson's and the $100 withdraw.)

I received 2 emails today (one for each case) saying that the case was closed in my favour. I got my money back, I also talked to the other people he scammed and they too got their money back. Here is the email and the resolution centre showing both claims closed (I didn't edit the 2 windows together I just have 2 screens, I edited out the second screen in the other screenshots. I'm unsure of what to do about this report now but here is the the rest of the info you wanted as well.

I won the case so I got my money back, also my mouse isn't showing up in the last screenshot but the URL is still seen at the bottom
Thank you for providing the requested evidence, moving to final review. Ready for Review: Attempted PayPal chargeback scam.
Oh boy do I have an update, I thought this was over. He called his bank and charge backed though that so I lost the money and from the looks of it, I'm not going to be seeing that money again... Also my account got locked to "comply with Australian Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing laws". I am royally pissed off. Here are screenshots, see the last 3 Completed transactions on the paypal summary list.
I'm sorry to hear about the unfortunate circumstances surrounding this. We'll be applying a full tag to this user for a PayPal charge-back scam. Thank you for submitting this report to us, and sorry this took so long.
