    Scam Report

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

    What happened? Description:
    [ASOS]Buddy #DoneWithTrading: Well, I was selling my two unusual hats. Somebody sends me a friend request and says he will buy them. He says that he wants to be sure I won't back out before he buys the stuff to trade me for my hats. He asks if I have a trusted friend I would trade the hats to. Not thinking the situation through, I send him the link to the friend's profile. I ask the friend if he got it, he says yes. The scammer invites the friend to our group chat, and we all agree. I then get a trade request, which I thought was from the friend because it had his name and avatar. I accept the request, trade the hats away, and the friend goes offline. In horror, I check my friends list and see that the real friend is still online. The fake friend goes offline, and the scammer goes offline.
