    Fake Vintage Cobra's friend's list showing scammer: http://i.imgur.com/Xj3LF.png
    Description:
    At the beginning of the chat, the scammer mentions my trade on tf2tp: http://tf2tp.com/trade.php?trade=7256175 I make no mention of cash, however the scammer mentions having $170, well above my asking price for buds. The scammer has now removed the fake Vintage Cobra from his friends list.
