    During June of this year, I was scammed out of my first unusual unbox. I didn't know it was a scam while it happened, and after it did, it was too late to gather evidence to report him. Does anybody know what I should do?

    All you can do is report his profile to Valve

    Sorry to hear. Lack of evidence means that filing a report on that user via SteamRep would probably be useless. Only thing you can do that may have impact would be to report the user for Scamming on their Steam Community profile. In the future please be more careful!

    dont worry i got scammed to and i lack evidence for a report on steamrep. Only thing i can do is report to valve but we all know thats pretty useless as well. My advice, if anyone adds u asking for a skin and proving that their account got +rep, dont trust them. Those +rep are from their friends. I got fooled by that trick.

    Profile comments do not constitute as a valid form of reputation! :)
