Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud

What happened? Description:

While I was away, my friend accepted a friend request from someone looking to pay in pure for his unusual (Disco Beat Down Whoopi Cap). They both agree to trade the unusual to "me" because the scammer wanted to know if "the hat was duped". My friend tries to contact me via steam and Skype but fails to. For some reason, he thought nothing odd when "I" accepted the steam group invite and apparently invited him to a trade. So a fake account impersonating me took the unusual, and then both accounts unfriended my friend. We have screenshots of the trade history and proof the alt account had my name + profile picture. We do not have a chatlog to post, so hopefully this is enough. The scammer already has four reports against him, so it should be clear that shady business is going on.

Also some things to discredit him a bit... He seems to have two fake +reps on his profile done by alt accounts. The accounts do not seem to be real, and the + reps do not make sense.
Here is the first one:

"^ESS^ | ๖Sk๖ | DimondbalI... Oct 20 @ 9:51pm
+rep sold my ★ Gut Knife | Slaughter (Factory New) to him and I went first. went really smooth. willing to trade any day!"

If you would look at this profile, it does not actually own CSGO, and the scammer does not have a knife near that value.

The other fake +rep is as follows:

"adawdasdawd Oct 2 @ 2:11pm
+Rep, He paid me pure for my quicksell unusual and then sold it back without any fees! Reliable trader!"

If you would look at this one's profile, you will see that he only owns one game, which IS tf2, but he only has 0.1 hours in it, so that seems a bit unlikely to have an unusual by that point. I'm not even sure what the +rep means either.

What a guy​
