    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198161122924

    Victim profile: 76561198087265548

    What happened? Description:
    The accused added me and then offered me 50 dollars for some of my items.
    He said he is gonna put the money in a trade offer.
    So I asked him if he is going to send the money via trade offer and he comfirmed.
    I asked how he can send money through trade offer as its not an ingame item and it can not be seen.
    Thats when he probably realised he can't lure me into such a trade and didn't answer.
    Another thing is that I am nowhere selling TF2 items or whatsoever for money and have no trades anywhere, for selling TF2 or other items for money.​

    Provide Evidence:
    As you can see from the image the accused made me an offer of 50 dollars for some of my items and said he would send the money through trade offer.
    I asked him to comfirm if he will send the money via trade offer and he comfirmed.
    A stupid way to attempt a trade scam.
    You can check that he is lvl 1 on Steam, with really small inventory.
    If he had that money - least he could do is to spend some of them on items for himself.
