  1. Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198121173951 ()

    Victim profile: 76561198101276222

    What happened? Description:
    This guy added me a while ago to sell me TF2 keys for 1.7USD each, at that time I wasn't online. Then he said he was "out of stock". 10 minutes ago he came to me saying he restocked. His inventory was private. He then gave me the link of "his" steamtrades rep page (http://www.steamtrades.com/user/bungrudi/page/1), this wasn't his page because I was not friends with the owner of that page. I politely asked him if he was sure that was his page and he confirmed. Obviously trying to scam me by impersonating someone.** proof of his ID**​

    Also, OP, you probably has to create a ticket on ST to get your single -rep on your ST account off as fake -rep. Just sayin'
  4. Probally should have said it a bit better, this guy is not trying to impersonate me. He is impersonating the "real" bungrudi which steamtrades rep page is this: http://www.steamtrades.com/user/bungrudi It is true he doesn't have a ST account. He uses this account to fake ppl that he has alot of +rep. The only thing I have to do with this, that he tried to scam me using this method

    Daw, I read that wrong, my bad.
    I thought the real user (whose info is in victim slot) made a report against his impersonator.
