    During the time this all happened, a few things happened.

    1. He wanted a "witness for the trade, first I gave him my alt account but he didn't like that.

    2. I had him add my Steam Friend that I know well and trust: [NnR] Kilroy Here is his info

    | steamname: [NnR] Kilroy
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:59316689
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198078899106
    | customURL:
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198078899106

    3. I was in contact with [NnR] Kilroy for the majority of the time, in chat and in a Steam
    Voice Call.I traded him my items and let him know what I wanted in return, When the Accused
    (JohnSTF2Sniper) Added the Impersonator (Currently named PrOfixer)as will as [NnR] Kilroy
    to a Group Chat it automatically muted my call with [NnR] Kilroy but I hadn't noticed for
    a while as I was looking at something on the internet. Here are the Impersonater (of me) 's Info:

    | steamname: PrOfixer
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:89419260
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198139104248
    | customURL:
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198139104248

    4. As soon as I realized [NnR] Kilroy was muted I sent a message to him asking why he was muted,
    he unmuted and we both realized what happened. He had traded away my items to an impersonator
    (PrOfixer).

    Here is a link to an album of miscellaneous proofs from [NnR] Kilroy's POV: http://imgur.com/a/MG1JU

    Provide Evidence:
    Most evidence was provided in the "What Happened" area. These are the screenshots of everything you would need. If you need more let me know and I can try to get it.​
