    NOTE: I do apologize for this not being in format, but the format would not really work for what I'm trying to report, proof is in reddit thread

    Before reading, just know, this isn't a "specific" scam, but reporting someone who is a known scammer, absolutely everything is explained in the reddit and I will copy here for convenience, refer to reddit thread comments for more details

    http://www.reddit.com/r/tf2trade/comments/1bmbxb/psa_scammer_with_name_of_sandy_nguyen_is_hosting/

    everything explained there^

    i'll post some important tidbits below though:

    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/76561198079070560-came2say-ola.23586/ <----- that was a scam he did on his alt account, that Sunbeams madame Dixie is one he was planning on selling for paypal (note pictures of youtube video, already deleted by him)


    he has multiple alts and has scammed before, which has been reported

    The Scrapbanker is just one of his alts, he has moved the items back to his main account (check his bp and you will notice it is very barren, items moved were: It's a secret to everybody dixie, sunbeams big country, and V. big kill)


    more things I have with him talking to me about giveaway

    Sunbeams Big Country history: http://www.tf2items.com/item/1544743437
    it says The Scrapbanker had it after Remmacs =D, and The Scrapbanker is a known alt account of Remmacs, also it says Scrapbanker is latest owner, but is no longer in inventory, and HERE we see it in Remmacs account

    http://www.tf2items.com/profiles/76561198079070560

    obviously was moved back to his main account

    all details are in thread, aswell as discussions in comments etc. etc

    edit: youtube channel is deleted by the guy, but we have pictures, also, items have been moved back to "remmacs =D"

    edit2: one thing i noticed about the picture of the vintage big kill, you can't see the name, but he should be in the history of the item, can't seem to dig it up atm but I will try

    edit3: Just thought I'd make this really clear, The Scrapbanker might also be moving them to another unknown alt account, because Remmacs version of the Sunbeams Big Country was duped (the other unusual was duped also), and the duped version was given to The Scrapbanker, and the Items are no longer in The Scrapbanker's account

    woops I can't edit anymore, but in the original post I said "sunbeams madame dixie" meant to say "sunbeams big country" the madame dixie he had was a secret to everybody

    also, more links, screenshots, and chat logs in the reddit thread

    Hi, I noticed the format and was going to do it that way, but I felt that it didn't apply as much in this sense because there was no clear victim, put up an apology about that at the top
