The deal was $200 usd for a Strontium Stovepipe with Aces high effect through paypal via a middleman. This was the middleman I was exapecting: http://steamcommunity.com/id/TheHooker/
This is the middleman I got (though the profile has been altered since then) http://steamcommunity.com/id/TheHooker/
It was a perfect match to the first when viewed earlier. The trade went through and neither party received their payment or hat. Afterwards the buyer (at the time bunny) didn't seem too bummed out about losing 200 dollars so I decided to pry a little (apparent in the screenshots) only to find out the buyer has the fake middleman as a previous alias (also in the screenshots). Lets get this guy?

transcripts:

Hello, could you upload your screenshots using the "Upload a File" button? All of your screenshots redirect to the scammer's steamrep and they're next to impossible to look at.

Yep! Here is the scammer's profile and list of previous aliases, the conversations between the scammer and I. The conversation with the scammer's fake middleman, and the legitimate middleman he was posing as.

Let me know if you need anything else!

Hello!!!
Thank you for your report! An SR admin will review yours in a while!

I found the hat on tf2outpost

http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/12874747

he is using bunny which is an alt account of his to push the trade

Here is his other account name which he is using to pawn the hat

| steamname: €ƒ² | Potato Ballz ∞

| customURL: http://steamcommunity.com/id/pr3dpotato
| steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198059072177

here is the history of the hat.

It has a new owner

| steamname: Зигулька:3
| steamID32: STEAM_0:0:41091287
| steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198042448302
| customURL:
| steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198042448302

I talked to Зигулька:3 in a trade invite, granted it was all in Russian but he said he had bought it from Kabuto Killer Son. I can't find anyone by that name and there is no transition user from Potato Ballz to Зигулька:3

What he meant was he got it for a sunbeams killer kabuto.

Can you screenshot your inventory history please?

Sorry, but how exactly would I go about doing this...?

Open Steam --> Inventory --> View Inventory History = Take full-window screenshots of entire day's trade.

Here you are, thanks for the help.

Thanks.
