    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulant behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198100806278

    Victim profile: 76561198132614792

    What happened? Description:
    So, I gambled off some valuable items that I had, and this one guy friended me (before it happened). After it did, he offered to help me in exchange for some items. He said he knew Joel (the creator of those horrible websites), and I believed him since he had Joel friended on Steam. So he asked me for some cosmetics I had, 3 weapons, a taunt, and a strange medigun.
    I accepted, but soon regretted it. I asked to get my stuff back buuut
    No. He unfriended me soon after.​

    Provide Evidence:
    The first 11 screenshots were that of the whole chat, start to finish.
    The 12th screenshot is the trade itself (and he also tried again on a 2nd trade for more items, which can be seen on the 14th screenshot).
    The 13th screenshot is his steamcommunity profile.​

    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History for last few days to present (NOT TRADE OFFER!!)- open this with a web browser, move your mouse over the users name in question so it shows up the hypertext popup URL at the bottom of the screen - take the screen shot DO NOT edit it in anyway and upload.

    That instruction applies to the trade with this user you are accusing AND the account you traded with on the gambling site...also what is the gambling site?

    The gambling site in question is TF2Pot.com, but I lost my items fair and square.
    Here's my Trade Inventory History ranging back to a week ago. I did not crop it in any way, not even my other google chrome tabs.

    That isn't correct....

    But also follow directions on the bot account. Please post the SR profile block of the bot account also...I want to research it.

    ehh I just needed the one for the accused you traded with and the bot... you do know the bot account is only a little less than 2 months old

    I'd be willing to bet it was created for the soul purpose to rip users off but I can't find any link to the user from it right now.
    The sites creation info:
    Updated Date: 04-jul-2016
    Creation Date: 04-jul-2016
    Expiration Date: 04-jul-2017

    Ok also who is this Joel user or the owner? How did you find this site?

    Joel is the creator/owner of both TF2Pot.com and TF2Bet.com, both TF2 Gambling sites used for gambling items.
    And yeah, TF2 gambling sites began popping up after CSGO Gambling sites crumbled down.
    I found this site by finding a video of it made by a small channel on my reccomended list. Actually, the site the youtuber was on is actually TF2Bet.com, but I soon found out about TF2Pot.com after some chatting on TF2Bet.

    Sorry for the late reply, I had IRL stuff to do.
    As for his profile: https://steamcommunity.com/id/joelkarl
    He's also been scamming other people judging by his comments.

    Though I dont think he did anything wrong except promoting the site. He's fairly small anyways.
    I also need to go to bed soon (in 5-ish minutes), apologies.

    @Sp00KVy Ok coming back to this after a while - ok so one last thing here you said the bot trades was fair and square and they don't have anything to do with this report correct?
    You basically traded with this one user and they were supposed to do something with the items but didn't, requested more items and when you said no he left correct?
