    Description:
    So this guy wanted me to give him my unusual today and he said he would give me his tomorrow. He said he was trusted by many people and that he would give me his the day after, once he got it. He made up a story about his family to make him sound believable. A bunch of other guys were saying they trusted him and that it was a good deal. Some of the other people on the server persuaded me to do it. The main one was actually on his friends list. So that is how I got scammed by the worthless garbage that is Rayman.

    I just talked to rayman ON SERVER. He said you blocked him and that he would be willing to give the hat back. He is giving it to tf2-trader admin Beshio who will give it to you. Rayman seems like he does want to give you the unusual on his brother's account. This looks like you jumped to conclusions a bit *too* fast. This trade was done today and he said he will have the unusual tomorrow. You didn't even give him until tomorrow (from his story) before you posted this scam report. I think more evidence may be needed here, but that's for admins to decide

    Hello, Jr. Admin of TF2-Trader Beshio here, I would like to input that I do have Ray's Item at hold currently and will return it back to its original owner (Captain Peelz).

    Peelz, why didn't you listen to me? I told you for 45 minutes not to trade him first, and that it was a scam. Come on dude wtf.

    Peelz approached me to mm last night, and rapaz (rayman) made up a story about how he wouldn't be online today, and would send Peelz his unusual in a few days if Peelz sent his over last night. After rapaz left the chat (unhappy with the middleman circumstance), i further warned Peelz not to make the trade. I logged in this morning and refreshed rapaz's profile to find a new name (rayman), a new profile picture, and no mutual friend of Peelz. I checked his inventory and found that Peelz ignored my countless warnings and sent him the hat anyways, as seen in his inventory. I then checked Peelz inventory, to which there was no unusual from rapaz/rayman. Absolutely stupid move by Peelz.

    This afternoon I noticed rayman was in game, so I followed him. I connected to rawr server, and called him out in chat as he was talking on the mic to other players in the server. He then left in under 20 seconds of me being there / calling him out. I then followed him into BBG server, where I called him out on the mic. I asked if he had anything to say for himself since he stole Peelz hat, to which he responded "no." I then banned him from BBG server. Sometime this afternoon he must have realized he was in deep s✿✿✿, as he returned the stolen item to beshio, but he still clearly stole the item and deserves a tag

    tl:dr - rapaz receives hat, promising to pay later. 12 hours later, he's changed his name, profile picture, and deleted peelz from friends list. follow him to rawr, as he's talking on the mic I call him out, he leaves. Follow him to bbg, call him out, he has nothing to say to defend himself. ban him from bbg. decides to return hat to beshio

    This did occur yesterday, on Thursday, as today is now Friday.

    Beshio, I know this is old, but the boot is no longer in your backpack. I checked Peelz' backpack and see the unusual boot seems to have been returned. Are we still doing something with this?

    He initially removed Peelz from his friends list after receiving the hat. The next day, I followed him around to attempt to recover the boot, to which he was uninterested, and was avoiding me. Shortly after banning him from the BBG server, he returned the hat to a different server admin, being Beshio. In my opinion, he returned it to avoid the tag / bans, because he had no intention of doing so until he was banned. He still initially stole the hat outright.

    I do believe this guy scammed me because the next day when I asked him for my unusual back since he had obviously lied about what time he would be on, he said he would not be on until 4:00 pm if he could even get on but he was on at 8:00 am. But when I did ask for my hat back he kept leaving the server, people were saying that he told them he had unboxed it and that it was never mine. He even blocked me when I followed him more. After he was banned from BBG he readded me and said that he only blocked me because it was annoying that I kept following him everywhere. He also said he had only been pulling Gzinthehood's leg when he toldh im that he did not know what he was talking about. A lot of the stuff he said seems very suspicious to me.
