    Description:
    This gentleman added me posing as 'Castleman' from SourceOP. He quickly associated his rep with that of Castelman and insisted I trade my Unusual hat first. However, when linking the Rep thread I immediately noticed the "WARNING, DO NOT TRADE WITH CASTELMEN; HE IS POSING AS ME." I also noticed his trade status is on "Probation" on steam. Clearly he is not following the terms of his probation and should be trade banned.

    It appears that the scammer has impersonated various traders as well.

    Can you also upload screenshot of the chat conv here as i can't view it ? Thanks :)

    http://steamcommunity.com/id/anomic/screenshot/559816336066047167

    notice how obvious it is that he won't even use a middleman

    http://steamcommunity.com/id/anomic/screenshot/559816336066054965/?


    And for this final screenshot, i confronted him about the obvious truth, only to be blocked and removed immediately after doing so
