Need help, I have a complicated situation

Alright so I am in a weird situation. Around today, a csgo gambling site called trade.ninja (https://www.trade.ninja/) appears to have closed without warning. Trade.Ninja opened around 3 months ago, and was supposed to be a rival of csgo lounge (http://csgolounge.com/). Instead of trading skins to bots to bet on games, you traded in your skins for credits. You then use the credits to bet on games, and then you can trade in your credits for skins. I thought it was a good idea, and so I and many other people started using it (I started around the time they first released the site publicly). Although the site had a few problems, and the owner acted unprofessional on occasion it did not seem likely that the site would close anytime soon. Except a little over a week ago the site's bots stopped working, so it was impossible to take skins out of the website. Shortly after that the website stopped listing games to bet on. The website staff said that they would try to fix the bots, but they did not. I tried adding the staff members on steam to find out when they would fix the bots and add games, but I never got a response. And then today I get notified by this reddit post that the website is down (https://www.reddit.com/r/csgobetting/comments/3690cn/looks_like_tradeninja_is_done/). I had around 48 dollars worth of skins in that site, but I know that valve will not help people for reasons like that, so I wont be getting them back. If I cant get my skins back, I at least want valve to lock their staff's bots and storage accounts so they will not be able to just run off with all of our skins. The thing is there is a chance that the website went down so they could fix some problems, but they have not made a public announcement yet on the matter. And so this is why I made this post, because I really do not know what to do now. I dont even know how to format this if I was to report it as a scam. Please help me

Ill link the profiles, but i am getting them from their group as the website is down so I cant get them all and I dont know exactly who does what

This is the one who pretty much owns the site: https://steamcommunity.com/id/Ninjasknowall
Admins/mods of the site: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198042550441
https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198002571897
https://steamcommunity.com/id/tradeninja

Always use ID Blocks, and make it a report.

And valve... send them a email... altho I have no idea who to contact for CSGO stuff or steamtrading... Best course of action would prolly be a steam support ticket for mayor scam of dozens/hundreds of steam users.

Thanks for the response. Alright ill make the ticket, yeah its around a few thousand users. Sorry I am new to this what is an ID block?

- open steam page of the user
- put its URL in the search box on http://steamrep.com and click search
- below the avatar is a box, with all the ID's of an account, the ID64 and 3ID are permanent ID's, that cannot change, "custom" is what a user can change any second.

Yours:

Thank you!

Just...wow.

It seems to be as if you are in the same boat with many other users. I have done minor research and discovered that the owner claims that his profile is business related only, therefore the low hours, yet I do not understand why he would buy GTA5 for an alternative account. This leads to my conclusion along with the fact that he is Steam Level 4 that he is a potential scammer. His Trade Ninja group and forums are becoming toxic. I have sent him a friend request and if he decides to accept, I will enquiry further and get back to you. For now, I suggest you create a Steam Ticket as SilentReaper suggested.

Best is to make a report, and put in all the ID blocks of the bots and owner/admins/mods etc in it, give evidence of what was given to those bot(s).

I don't have the time currently to start digging at this.

Just an update: The owner failed to respond to my friend request while he was online and in-game which concludes to the fact that there is definitely something suspicious. It is in my strogest belief that if you haven't done so already, you should quite certainly report the owner and any of the moderators that you strongly feel may have been in on the dodgy business.

Imagine: you have (created?) a issue with the site, and all its users are adding you... at a certain point, you are no longer indulging in answerring everybody personally. Not saying he's innocent or w/e, but at a certain point you stop dealing with 1:1 interactions for it. And that is done mostly by ignoring everybody's invites.

< prime example

I agree on that. Public announcement is the way to go in such a situation. only can mean one thing...
