What happened? Description:

So, basically I got added by a person who wanted to buy my Planets Blighted Beak, needless to say I was quite happy about this extraordinary occasion, since I've been looking to sell it for a while. Unfortunately, this ceased to be when I found out he was just pulling the "trusted friend" card, so I caught on pretty quickly. But rather than go all "AGH YOU'RE A SCAMMER, REPORTED AND BLOCKED", I figured I should test him until he knows I know. Then I blocked him.​

Here, he greets me in a seemingly normal friendly manner. I was looking forward to selling this seemingly charming fellow my Unusual Beak, because Keys. However, flags were raised as soon as he asks me to get a friend to hold my hat. View attachment 183703
I then give him a fake name to see if he's that simple. He wasn't.

I then give him the name of my actual friend who I told as soon as I knew he was up to no good. View attachment 183708
He then brung in a fake account with the exact same name and profile image. The secondary profile (the mimicker) can be found here: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198084913675/

Since this guy instantly invited me to trade, I first checked to see if he knew what my actual friend knew, which is, to say, he didn't. View attachment 183710
Boom, exposed​
