    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198160113451

    Victim profile: 76561198121381900

    What happened? Description:
    This new trend of impersonation is swag nowadays. This guy (BuyAndSellingUnusuals) - which is very inconspicuous nickname - added me and I knew from the begging that he is scammer/phisher bot. Turned out that he is actual man sitting behind his screen with 2 hours of playtime on TF2. Now we're getting into the classic ways these impersonators scam:
    1) He said he needs to check my hat - if it's duped (and my hat was duped)
    2) When I told him it's duped, he still wanted to check something
    3) Basically he just wanted me to give my hat to someone so he could impersonate me and take that hat from the guy aka 'trusted friend of mine'​
