    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198161657552

    Victim profile: 76561198044520304

    What happened? Description:
    This person added me and wanted my friend to be the MM only to change his name and act like the MM in order to scam me out of my unusual. I have a screenshot of my TRUE friend on Steam Chat and the impersonator, while the initial trader pressured me to trade it to the "MM."​

    Provide Evidence:
    Player attempted to do the name-switch dupe check scam against me. I had my Steam chat opened for my trusted friend and the name-switcher had sent me a trade. My friend was also on Team Fortress 2 while the name changer was never in game.​

    Can you specify what info you need from the impersonator?

    The same info you gave on the initial accusation (i.e. the info block from the person's SteamRep page containing name, all applicable IDs, and SteamRep link).

    Okay, maybe I need to be a bit more clear.

    You have the main's info (which is helpful), but admins would also appreciate any info on the other accounts the accused is using for these scams. Thus, they'll need the ID block for the account that was working with the accused to try and trick you.
