    Accused profile: 76561198250551206

    Victim profile: 76561198141834675

    What happened? Description:
    Ive posted an offer on tf2outpost (http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/28099165#latest), couple days go by (already 3 people tried to scam me, but they were already banned), and he adds me on steam, when i accepted he was idle, so i decided to look up his profile, and he didnt have any items or good history, ive checked his steamrep and he had clean history, so i thought he has items on other account or steam is bugged, i typed his name in the google to check steamrep, and when i went on the profile it had a bit diffrent name, and it was profile of trusted trader Gov Yurchik (http://steamcommunity.com/id/name-yurchik), So i thought it was just a bug, couple of hours go by and he sends me a message that can be seen in the screenshots, when he send me a link to this other traders profile i realized that it might not be a bug but he is just trying to scam me, ive checked all the profiles and there were 2 diffrent yurchiks, when i called him out for scamming , he instantly removed me.​

    Links to another user's claim of being scammed. Does not have chat logs but given how the fake Yurchik went so far as to impersonate and even copied the real user's Yurchik when he changed his profile pic in the last hour it does lend credence to Xondius claim's.
