    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Quick-switch trade scam or attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198101447092

    Victim profile: 76561198156614488

    What happened? Description:
    Traded with him in the past (My Crimson Web Knife), he helped me get set up on sites that would allow me to check the value of my inventory, since he knew what he was talking about, I felt like I gained a bit of trust. However he said he didn't trust me since I didn't have any +rep from previous trades so asked me go to first. So I went first, and he paid up. However the second time, another knife - Covert Butterfly Fade FN, since we spoke for about 2 months, I thought it would be safe to do the same method again, however he took the knife, and then removed me as a friend and blocked me without paying up. He has quite a few +reps on his profile saying he went first etc. Profile looked legit, played with him a few times. And as stated in the conversation, the deal was the knife for £163 on Paypal.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I have 2 links, one that shows the full convo on pastebin, and the other showing the convo on imgur.

    I have also uploaded the pictures in order. Trade history and PayPal history also uploaded.
    As you can see, the trade on the 26th March,2016 under thesteviej/Bradley Pyner was done correctly, but the trade which was attempted 11 Apr, 2016 wasn't.

    I made the mistake of taking the screenshot of the chat with Windows Snipping Tool prior to going to bed, woke up to realise that I can't full screenshot the conversation that I had. That is a mistake on my behalf and I apologise for that. If this can't get something done, then at least it'll garner some awareness on the accused. (Follow the chat in order (1-7) for start to end)

    Please do let me know if I need to upload anything else.​

    @Fokken You do realize we have a few thousand reports to go thru and it takes time.
    I took a brief look this morning - as for taking a look now, your chat boxes are all cropped too much, we need full screens when you take a screen shot as in everything you see on your monitor. So with that I was just having issues knowing if and when this conversation ever took place.

    In that case, I apologise.

    For the chat box, I agree. It was a mistake on my behalf, I had just came back from a holiday and was suffering with jet lag. I'm more used to using Windows Snipping Tool instead of ALT + PrntScr as I wanted to get as much information as I could before heading to bed. I'm also semi-new to Steam (even though my join date was in 2014), and never had to report a scam before. It wasn't until this morning a friend told me to do steamrep, and it was at that point when I read the guidelines, I realised I made a mistake.

    For that, I apologise once again for it not being timestamped and full screen. But I can tell you that the chat took place at around midnight, UK time (49 minutes before I had sent the knife). If there is an alternative to viewing the chat logs, please do let me know and I will get that for you. I have no reason to lie even though it's the internet.

    If the chat log that I provided isn't eligible, please do guide me on what I can do to make it eligible. And thank you for your time.

    Hmm, this is still pending.. :/ The accused has 'un-privated' his profile, and the knife isn't there anymore. Still has me on block and has me banned from twitch whenever I attempt to talk to him about it.
