What happened? Description:

This guy adds me and says that he wants to buy my stovepipe for USD. We agree on 50 bucks. He says he's gonna buy it with "steam wallet money". Ive heard countless scams with this type of crap, so I immediately caught on but still went along with this attempted scam. He sends me a trade offer with the message (attached in screenshots) and puts a sydney sleeper in the trade. I knew this was a scam, so I proceeded and said there was an error and i couldn't view it. I tried to get him into a live trade window but he said it "doesn't work". lol. So he says "how about I take a pic of the trade so you can see its real". And all that crap (also attached in screenies). He then tries to convince me that he's uploaded a picture showing me its real. He says he uploaded it to tinypic.com (I have also attached a screenshot of the site he sent me to, where he took a screenshot of the trade offer. This whole event has just really pissed me off and I want to get this guy banned.​

He just changed his name to HeRcroft after I told him I reported him.

Hello @†Chuck Norris†, Evidence reviewed and ready for admin to process.

thanks

any updates?

@SIVARTZ its been a while now :/

Please be patient with SR. They have tons of reports to handle. Even my report is still stuck on evidence reviewed since July 2014! On the bright side, reporting the accused gives them a caution mark or SR

ehem, I meant on SR* the caution serves as a warning that the man might be a scammer
