    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198382386264

    Victim profile: 76561198118559958

    What happened? Description:
    Story:
    I created a new cash rep thread in the CSGO REP! Steam group and he immediately contacted me to talk about cash trades. Said he accepted BTC/Steam wallet codes. He then proceeded to send me his "main" account, who's bio SPECIFICALLY SAID "I only have 1 account". Following this, I asked him to add me using his "main" to prove his ownership of the account, which he then started dodging my questions and started asking me "if I've ever been scammed before and is that why I'm so careful".

    He is still lurking on the CSGO REP! Forums and is waiting for new traders to make cash reps so he can scam them! Ban him ASAP!​

    @deFus3 I need to see a LINK that the user gave you - as you have it right now there isn't enough evidence to show the user is guilty of anything without proof of the link or where the user was sending you. I can't see that as you have image embed still enabled in steam chat which may have caused this evidence to be lost.
    Also none of these screenshots have a date - I need to see a date.
    And lastly have you run into this user at any point on any other account and do you have proof of identity to you and the accused? I don't see any connection between you and them thru my ways of telling this or with what you provided.

    Is it possible to show the link in web chat without the image embedded? I have since unfriended him so the chat cannot be found on the Steam client. The best I can do is hover over the embedded image to reveal a link. As with proof of identity here is him commenting on my cash rep trying to add me:

    My bad, I’ll be on a long flight soon so I’ll try to get you the screen shot ASAP, otherwise I’ll send it after I get off my flight.

    No because you edited it - we need FULL screenshots and do NOT ever edit a screenshot for evidence here.

    In what way did I edit it? I covered my name that’s on the top right corner and that’s it.

    Well as long as you don't edit it, that is fine.
    I can't see the link now though

    the link is in the web chat, and there is no other way to expand it any more. There is already evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that this guy is a scammer, and I have provided a lot of proof. Furthermore, if you check his profile on steam rep, he has been reported once more in the past and if you read that report the scammer tried to pull THE EXACT SAME SCAM on another person as he did on me. Every second that he isn't banned from the steam rep group and from this website makes more potential traders vulnerable to being scammed. I have attached another image below on other links he sent me, but that's about as much evidence as I can provide.

    Ok see this screenshot
    https://forums.steamrep.com/attachments/screen-shot-2019-07-10-at-9-03-43-pm-png.720849/
    I need it to show exactly like what you show here except for FULL screen and unedited.

    You can call this user a scammer all you like but till I can confirm against proper evidence the user is innocent of any wrong doing.
    I'm not concerned with past reports - they are irrelevant to this one.
    Every second you don't provide exactly what I'm asking for is another second that I can't do a final review.
    Even with a tag here just as a reminder, the user can STILL TRADE...the tags here does not prohibit them from trading at any point.
    You know exactly what I'm looking for and need - one more reply to provide it, make it count as there are other reports that need attention as well.

    do you also have the ability to ban him from the csgo rep forums? He's most likely still lurking there waiting on new traders.

    Ok now I need to verify identity since I can't tell if you were ever friends with this user and not someone else.
    Follow next set of instructions

    Thanks - issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the popup of the profile. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's Full Screen and make sure steam client URL is enabled, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Please review this screenshot guide to help you:

    Can you explain more? did you mean something like this picture of the example you sent? [​IMG] I can't get the url to show up at the bottom left for some reason. This is what I was able to get.

    That should be ok - next time do NORMAL screenshots of the chat from steam client and get a FULL screen of the users profile WHILE friends to go with evidence.
    Nothing else needed at this time - will review again shortly so no need to post again
    Thanks
