Then upload them to an image hosting service (imgur for example) and post the links to the evidence of screenshot in the report. Example- should look like this - https://imgur.com/MjGyin8 Please also tell him to take screenshots of the trade offer / trade history - should also be Uncropped and Unedited, also in a web browser, with your mouse hovering over the username so that profile URL pops up in bottom corner.
