What happened? Description:

After winning some unusuals on Sweetstakes.tf, I planned to buy a karambit sapphire. The accused was actually helping me around with what to get, and about how much to get them, I've known him for quite some time and first met him on sweetstakes.tf. He found out that he has a friend that did in fact have a karambit doppler sapphire so I added him and found out that he has trust issues for some reason, said to have been scammed $15,000 before. The accused told me the same thing, but said that he didn't really elaborate about it. So, the seller actually did not have the karambit, but said that it was on an alt account. So, in the end, since he really didn't trust me for being a "gambling account" (My main is www.steamcommunity.com/id/Bacen , can't trade on it because of chargeback restriction.) So I appointed that friend as a middleman. I sent him the unusuals, then for some reason, he got "hacked". He could not get onto his account and said that he was declining every trade possible on his mobile device. After being "hacked", the seller actually unfriended everyone in his friend's list and made his profile private. I was tired that time and slept, and the next morning, I found out that he actually unfriended me, blocked me, and made his profile private on his alt and main. Now, he is currently trying to sell all the unusuals (worth about 1500 keys in total). Now, I assume that he was the one who plotted this altogether and actually wanted to get my unusuals. Hopefully you can take action and mark him on steamrep.​

Provide Evidence:

Just found out that he transferred the unusuals to this account: http://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198046025785

Turns out that he was mysT, the guy who "had" the karambit.​

More evidence from a friend who confronted him: http://imgur.com/t0Cndn5
So apparently he's trying to lie about using his sister's paypal for the unusuals (which is obviously false) and here is the "transaction" that he sent to my friend https://gyazo.com/ea0faacf899660d1008f8b026dec7927

History of unusuals.

Can I please get this archived or a decision?

It's been over 4 years now, I'm excited to revisit TF2 again, and this report is hindering my experience.

Thanks.

What is there that you wish for me to address?

The evidence speaks for itself, this isn't a real report, let's get it sorted out...

This didn't occur. This report was made during a time sweepstakes.tf was extremely active, I was a very active player, if that provides any further insight into the matter?

Can we please get some actual resolution on this matter based on the evidence presented?

Appreciate you taking the time to follow this back up so recently.

I'll be honest, I feel like its a lost cause.

The evidence provided is not related to my account.
All screenshots do not match any of my steam credentials, its highly likely this user was scammed by an impostor.

Let me know if there's anything further I can do to resolve the matter, I will actively attend to all replies and considerations.

The person he mentions and mentions in screenshots in evidence was on my friends list at the time of this incident.

If that's what you mean?

The original post made by "Mother's Pasta" links to this users bp.tf

This user also has an active report outstanding for CS:GO related items.

Was merely a guess as to how this user could have potentially been scammed by the user presented in evidence.
Assuming that's what happened.

My interactions with the reporter were simply as sweetstakes.tf gamblers.
We both played on this site, winning and losing many times against each other.
We had talked about things relating to the site on many occasions, outside of gambling via that means, we were not "friends" per say.

We were friends on steam at one point in time, yep.

Fair enough, gathering his claims hold no truth and no evidence of same would assume assumptions are acceptable.
