The screenshot shows that previous name was Opti. The impersonator has since changed his profile picture as well.) Description: The impersonator added me under the name Optic, with the same profile pic as the real user shown above. He offered cash for my unusual, and messaged me a link to the real Opti's SOP rep thread, pretending it was his. When I threatened to report him, he claimed he had had his unusual scammed off him by an impersonator. He then linked me to the real Opti's steam profile, saying that that was the scammer who had taken his hat. Chat Transcript: Code: Never tell your password to anyone. Optic: hello !
