    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198043937703

    Victim profile: 76561198091358153

    What happened? Description:
    I am the admin/owner of a raffling group, Raffling King By Alphonsus (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/rafflingkingalp). Recently, I hosted a Genuine Ham Shank Raffle (Evidence 1 & http://steamcommunity.com/groups/rafflingkingalp#announcements/detail/925880073953894755).

    One of the person who joined was named SilverSlayers. (Evidence 2 & http://steamcommunity.com/id/66426793 or http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198129194717).

    When the raffle was concluded, SilverSlayers was announced as the winner (Evidence 3 & http://steamcommunity.com/groups/rafflingkingalp#announcements/detail/925880073955951155).

    In a short period of time, 2 trade offers were sent to me, one by the actual winner, and another by an impersonator. (Evidence 4: Top trade offer is by the impersonator)

    Upon going to the impersonator's profile, here are some details which I dug up about him. (Evidence 5 & http://steamcommunity.com/id/loominartyconfirmed69 or http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198043937703 and http://steamcommunity.com/id/loominartyconfirmed69/namehistory or http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198043937703/namehistory).

    After some time, when I did not accept the impersonator's trade offer, he changed his name again to SilverScrub (Evidence 6 & http://steamcommunity.com/id/loominartyconfirmed69 or http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198043937703 and http://steamcommunity.com/id/loominartyconfirmed69/namehistory or http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198043937703/namehistory).

    Some additional information include the profile, alias and name history of the actual winner aka actual SilverSlayers (Evidence 7 & http://steamcommunity.com/id/66426793 or http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198129194717).

    I sincerely express my gratitude to all relevant parties who will be involved in bringing this impersonator to justice, and I thank you for your time. For any more queries, do feel free to contact me, thanks.​

    Hello guys, I'm the person in particular who have attempted to steal an item from this raffle.
    This is my first time actually impersonating a person because I did it for s✿✿✿s and giggles, hence the word "K A P P A". I know realized that what I did was a major dick move and I can be compromised of my account.
    I just wanted to say I'm sorry, I never attempted to scammed anyone until now. I sent SilverSlayers some items, as well as an apology of what has happened.

    Again, I'm very sorry!

    What's done has been done, I can't help you anymore with this case except provide assistance to the relevant parties involved in managing this case to them, so I have no control over what happens after this.

    I understand that I have to face the possible consequences of my actions AND that I wanted to let you guys know I'll never joke around like this ever again.

    Even though he gave me a few items it was only one scrap that's not even close to 2.4 ref, but I still don't think that he can get away with it

    @ЩĄ | Horse, thanks for your time and effort in managing this matter.
    @SilverScrub / STOUTSHAKO2REF, and to think you still have the cheek to make yourself look good when you only gave 1 scrap...

    Not concerned with what was paid out to make up for the attempt - in fact we wouldn't advise that.
    @Alpho {The Fuhrer} Need a full screenshot of that trade offer again - this time open with a web browser, hover your mouse pointer over users name so it shows up the URL at the bottom. Full screen please I even want to see windows start bar.

    No problem, feel free to contact me if you need further details.

    However, while I am using Snipping Tool on Windows 10, the mouse icon does not show in the screenshot, but the link is still below in the bottom left corner since I was hovering over "ShieldScrub" before the screenshot was captured.
