What happened? Description:

My accusation is that "Haradlsen" user listed tried to use a fake OP skins bot as a means to take my items.

He added me spontaneously somehow, maybe through the steam cash group. The initial agreement was 40 USD and 5 USD for a skin and a sticker. He said it could be traded using OP skins as a middleman. I asked him to walk me through the process which was to go to the sell tab and to add it to the sell queue in OP skins, but not actually deposit the item. At this point he said to look for a notification. Which I did see was named as an OP skins bot. Thankfully I had double checked the bot and found out that it was not an actual OP skins bot. Therefore he had attempted to use a fake OP skins bot to get my skins.

If I had been more knowledgable about the mechanics of OP skins, I would have been able to avoid even the attempt in the first place.

I viewed the profile of the fake bot and found it had a fake group as well filled with more fake bots. I've compiled a list of the bots in the group plus the leader of the group:

All of them can be referenced against the official opskin bot group to find that they are not legitimate. The trade request was sent fromb0t0014_opskinssss​

Above is the initial trade agreement of 40 USD and 5 USD for a skin and a sticker to be traded through OP skins as a digital middle man.
View attachment 507433
By 10:04 he had finished walking me through the steps which did not include depositing it. (To my later found knowledge, it was not possible to trade anything through OP skins without using the deposit button.). He shows that he is aware that I should have gotten a notification from an OP skins bot after putting into queue but not depositing. Therefore, he had been using this as an means to tricking unknowing people like me.

Further proof that he was trying to stop me from depositing it.

At this point I had double checked the group and realized that the bot was fake so I didn't accept any trade.

Notified the trader that he had been found out.
