He then proceeded to tell me that he wanted to get the trade over and done with fast so he got a middleman involved. This is where penguin came in he said we should both give things to him. The knife and then he would pay me the money he offered. I traded him the knife because he said the money was on its way. I was then removed from a group chat and blocked. My knife was gone and i had no money. I looked in both peoples inventory after and they had quickly moved the knife on because it was not there.​

    @Coops

    Please complete the following steps, exactly as written, in order:

    1. Go to your trade history from in your web browser. https://steamcommunity.com/my/inventoryhistory
    2. Scroll down to the trade in question. It may be on a different page, but that's fine; just open the page which has this particular trade.
    3. Hover your mouse over the name of the person who received your item(s).
    4. With your mouse still over the name from step 3, take a full, uncropped screenshot, and save it to your desktop without making any edits.
    5. Right-click the name of the person who received your item(s) from the trade history page, and select Copy Link Address (Chrome), Copy Link Location (Firefox), or Copy shortcut (Internet Explorer).
    6. Go to SteamRep.com and paste that link into the Search field. If a warning opens up (which may or may not happen), click "I understand".
    7. Copy and Paste the full text from the box below the profile picture that comes up into your next reply. You can click the "Copy Info" button on the SteamRep profile page from step 6.
    8. Upload your screenshot from step 4 as an attachment.
    9. Post your reply, including both step 7 and 8.
    Do NOT paste links that look like this: https://steamcommunity.com/id/mattie because those links can change, and they are not easily searchable.

    Do NOT look up the accused's profile from the admin/middleman lists, or from any other website. We need you to provide the link exactly as it comes up following the instructions above.
    Do include the full SteamRep block derived from the Steam community URL.

    Hello @Coops , I updated the accused profile to match the real person. I'm going to put your report ready since the accused is still impersonating a MM but I'm afraid that without a screenshot of the group chat we cannot mark the buyer but I'm going to leave ot for an admin to deicide.

    [COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961)]The reason I am not able to show screenshots of the conversation is because I was not taking constant screenshots of it because I assumed it was legit because of this middleman. He kicked me from the conversation so it did not appear on my recents and can no longer view it but it went a little like this l. I know it's not much help but this is how it happened

    I listed my knife on lounge and was added by eye of the tiger. He gave me an offer of £100 for the knife but I was also approached with an other offer for £125 I told him of this offer and he said to stop talking to the other buyer if he offered £200 I said ok and then removed the other buyer as a friend .

    He proceeded to say we needed a middleman and then invited his friend penguin. I was linked the real penguins official page so thought it was all real he said the money was being sent through so I traded my knife I was then kicked from the group chat and no money was paid into my PayPal [/COLOR]
