    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198205083812

    Victim profile: 76561198131676850

    What happened? Description:
    Turtle added to buy my unusual, he requested I trade to a trusted friend in order to check if my unusual was duped. I explained that my friend was offline but when he was on we could trade. Soon enough 'my friend' and the trader open a groupchat and request to trade. I am suspocious and look at my friend list and immediatly see that he is offline still. Therefore i am trading an imposter.​

    Provide Evidence:
    My friend Master Slender Jaws is nicknamed 'Slendy' and is offline during this whole interaction.

    I played along to get some evidence and sure enough they try scam me of my unusual.
    Going through turtle's steam profile I noticed the username of someone who tried and pulled off the same scam on me only this week. ID 76561198084913675
    I suspect that every private profile on his friend list are also accounts used for scamming.​
