    Description:
    Teamviewer is a new tactic scammers use now to control the victim's computer to complete the trade themselves. I was smart enough to not fall for his trick but after a while I realised he had already scammed an unusual from a person whom he added on the same day. I would like to report this person for his underhand means in obtaining high tier hats. Do note my hat is a Searing Plasma Trophy Belt, and it's definitely worth way less than $185. His overprice shows that he just wants to convince you and scam your hat away. If i had followed him and downloaded Teamviewer, a few clicks away and he would've become rich. He has changed his name many times after he deleted me.

    Teamviewer website: http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx
    Example of scam using Teamviewer:

    In any case, the use of Teamviewer cannot be trusted.

    Code:
    Never tell your password to anyone.
    Ghoul: Hello
    Cover Girl: hello :)
    Ghoul: I was just wondering if you would like money offers for that lovely unusual :)
    Ghoul: Steamwallet / straight bank payment :)
    Cover Girl: :/ im not familiar with those stuff
    Ghoul: I could go first aswell
    Cover Girl: but how much would you offer?
    Ghoul: i was thinking around 140-160$
    Ghoul: i can spend
    Ghoul: on that sexy trophy ;)
    Cover Girl: wow thats nice
    Cover Girl: i would really love that
    Ghoul: I can go first with steamwallet easily
    Cover Girl: but i just dont know how to do these transaction :o
    Ghoul: If you're scared of steamwallet refund, its imposible
    Cover Girl: how does it work?
    Ghoul: I add money to your funds, after that you give hat, everything will happen in your eyes :)
    Cover Girl: can i keep you added? :D
    Ghoul: Funds added to the Steam Wallet are non-refundable and non-transferable. Steam Wallet funds have no value outside Steam
    Cover Girl: thi is my first time doing such so i need a lil update ^^
    Cover Girl: i see.
    Ghoul: Well you have to think fast, because i will find other person then :/
    Ghoul: I want to quickbuy, thats why im overprice a bit :)
    Ghoul: looking for sexy trophy belt
    Cover Girl: i see.
    Cover Girl: well 150$ is a really good offer
    Cover Girl: just wait a while? ;)
    Ghoul: How long? :)
    Cover Girl: hmm

    Cover Girl: your*

    Ghoul: what's that?
    Cover Girl: as in like how much time do you have
    Ghoul: I have allot of time, but im trying to get hat as fast as possible you know :)
    Ghoul: if you asking how much money i got, its 1,420$ left.
    Ghoul: but not spending all
    Cover Girl: i see
    Cover Girl: alright i can accept that amount
    Cover Girl: but how do i know if i got the cash?
    Ghoul: You want steamwallet?
    Cover Girl: yea im fine with it
    Ghoul: You will see
    Cover Girl: since i dont have paypal or other sort
    Ghoul: Can you get paypal?

    Cover Girl: hmm whats that?
    Ghoul: Remote access to your computer, so i can type
    Ghoul: everyone knows that program
    Cover Girl: o.O?
    Ghoul: Its like keyboard and mouse on your computer from me
    Ghoul: Because i can only add money to your steam account you know, either you give your account, that i wouldn't take
    Cover Girl: wait you want my account? >.>
    Ghoul: No
    Ghoul: i wouldn't take it
    Ghoul: Thats why we use teamviewer
    Ghoul: + it has recording function in it.
    Ghoul: So i can record this trade, so when you get money, what you do next you know. If you scam i have big evidence of you doing it ;)
    Cover Girl: wait whats the point of it
    Ghoul: I put my mastercard info to your steam to add money?
    Ghoul: there is no other way
    Ghoul: you click where i type
    Cover Girl: oh o.o
    Ghoul: you click like card number
    Ghoul: i type in
    Ghoul: and so on, i can type you know
    Ghoul: So are you good or no? :/

    Ghoul: So? :/
    Cover Girl: just not good with teamviewert.
    Ghoul: Why's that?
    Cover Girl: teamviewer*
    Cover Girl: you can just esnd directly to my steamwaller
    Ghoul: I can't
    Ghoul: MOney in steamwallet is not transferable
    Ghoul: Why are you not good with teamviewer? :/
    Ghoul: Hello?
    Ghoul: Just let me know, if you want to do it or no :(
    Cover Girl: hmm what if you raise the price?
    Ghoul: I dont know
    Ghoul: i dont have much money to spend on tf2 :/
    Ghoul: What would make you sell it
    Ghoul: real price, dont go up allot please
    Cover Girl: what is your maximum amount ?
    Ghoul: 185
    Cover Girl: hmmm now im really considering
    Cover Girl: just asking, would i still need teamviewer if i used paypal?
    Ghoul: I would like to record this deal just incase of scam
    Ghoul: evidence.
    Ghoul: Unless you go first
    Ghoul: that would change everything.
    Cover Girl: use another recording application would be easier?
    Ghoul: I dont know any other programs that lets me see your screen tho
    Ghoul: Btw, my paypal is not verified
    Cover Girl: dont have to see my screen

    Ghoul: Im not going 100 trades just to buy your hat
    Ghoul: you accept it or no
    Ghoul: You decide
    Ghoul: If you want it or no, last answer.
    Cover Girl: you just need 1 trade. since 1 key in tf2 is 2.50$ in store, you just need to offer 60$ for 1 bud and they will take it
    Cover Girl: come back with 2
    Cover Girl: you spent 120$
    Cover Girl: there.
    Ghoul: f✿✿✿✿✿✿ answer my question

    Ghoul: thats it
    Ghoul: i will find someone who takes straight money
    Ghoul: im not wasting 5 hours
    Ghoul: to buy 2 buds
    Ghoul: because people dont need more keys
    Ghoul: they need to cash out in real life

    I believe the account above is the scammer's alternate. Here I have found his main (confident):

    steamID: XxGhostxX
    steamID32: STEAM_0:1:24317387
    steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198008900503
    customURL:
    steamrepURL: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198008900503

    Take a look at this OP: http://www.tf2outpost.com/user/91521
    If you check each of his unusuals item history, you will find out that most of his unusuals come from Ghoul (which is banned from OP) and even some other banned accounts.
    The recent ones are: Smoking Tossle, Hearts Toque and the N&B Le Party Phantom.
    The victim who lost his Smoking Tossle yesterday is now my friend and now I am helping to nab this guy.

    Victim (Smoking Tossle gone):
    steamID: nublord240
    steamID32: STEAM_0:0:23871749
    steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198008009226
    customURL:
    steamrepURL: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198008009226

    As you can see from the item history of the Smoking Tossle: Nublord > Ghoul (alt)>XxGhostxX (main)
