Scam Report Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items Accused profile: 76561198063170542 Victim profile: 76561198032075436 What happened? Description: This person tried to scam me since 2014, now I change my name and steam picture, he attempt this again. I was selling my dota 2 items for Paypal money(85 USD) but then I felt more safe if we can trade directly through steam so why not have him(buyer) buy me an item which is worth 85 USD from Steam community market and then trade me through steam so its the same thing as spending 85 USD through Paypal. When I asked to do so, he start to claim how he will not make profit if he buys me the item which doesn't make sense because he is going to take 85 USD out of his Paypal account either way. When I ask to trade for one of his item(Timber breaker (selling for 80 USD) ) he said for some reasons because if Im selling my item for 85 USD and hes buying, trading me the time breaker would be reasonable consider im losing 5 USD but he argue how he got it for 65 dollar he can sell it for more and this is the part which doesn't make sense. The most he can sell it for its around 80 USD so how is he losing profit when Im giving him my 85 USD item for his 80 USD item. I then tried to send in a trade, then an official steam message from steam said "You are unable to trade with this user because he is temporary banned from trading" He explained by saying he just switch to his labtop so steam has a 7 day protection so I understood and asked him how he is able to do middleman if he wont be able to receive my item then he state that "The middleman will hold my item for that period, but you will get your money right now" As far as my knowledge of steamrep middleman, no middleman will hold item for 2 days for their client. Later on he send me the profile of steamrep middleman RGBacon and said to use him as middleman but in RGbacon's profile, he claim that he will not be doing middleman as there is too many impersonators so it was a bit suspicious. I then i ask if hes trying to use an impersonator of RGbacon then he said"He doesnt middleman for cs.go only" which doesn't make any sense because cs.go items are the same thing as dota 2 item.
