    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198140950646

    Victim profile: 76561198072861620

    What happened? Description:
    The accused added me on Steam and asked for the B/O of my knife. After telling him it was at 50k he offered 60k and said that he would need to get them first. He then asked if I had a friend online who I trusted whom I could give the knife to in the meantime. I invited said friend (who was in Teamspeak and we staged this so the scammer would get busted) into a group chat and the accused asked some questions to buy time while he created a duplicate account of my friends' one. When he was done he private messaged me again asking if I really trusted my friend and after I confirmed he invited the fake account into this new chat, all while distracting my real friend in a seperate private chat. Then he sent me a trade offer from the faked account in a third chat window. At this point I snapped the screenshots and busted him afterwards.​

    Provide Evidence:

    Despite no answer from the victim, I think there's enough for an admin to analyse. Evidence provided.
