Accepted Report: 76561198056278785 (Why So Serious?)

He scammed me out of half a DotA2 trade. We agreed to trade my 4 games for his two Dotas. He picked the two most valuable ones then ditched me after he made the trade.

hi first of all, the deal was 2x Dota 2 items for 4 games.
what happened is that i traded 1 Dota 2 for 2 games, where is the scam here?? we wanted to trade 2 x Dota 2 for 4 Games then what happened is that i traded 1 for 2 games there is no scam here u r just upset cos i didn't trade the last copy i had cos i had a second thou about ur items cos they didn't worth much for me thats all.

I'm just going to append this link right here: http://www.playdota.com/forums/showthread.php?t=674202

i don't see how is this playdota.com thread is related to me in anyway??!!! there is no one single screen shot for me talking at ny kind of deal or anything from my account which u had the link for it in ur post at playdota.com what does that has to do with me, just so u know i don't have an account at playdota.com

just so u know that person at this thread who did those scams or w.e that isn't me, u confuse me between someone else just based on what facts??!!! u search for his name using steam friend finder then it shows my acc name along with his acc's or w.e and u decide i am him, how silly can ppl be??!!!

that guy bo0m i talked to he said that i use that email [email protected] on my acc wtf is that, i tried to explain to him thats not my email but he was convinced it was my email cos when he search at the friends my name show is that all u got??

and the guy who started that Thread PunetJR or something i can't rlly remember, he decide its me cos i said in my chat with bo0m "I thou" and the guy who scammed him said "I thou"

wooow guys, u rlly deserve a nobel prize on this one my advice to all scammers never say "I thou" or u r a scammer and if u search for a scammer at the friend list and u see several account names along with the scammer account then all those accounts belong to the same person.

i got nothing more to say about this rlly, u got no proves or facts yet u still think i am the scammer while that guy had like 4-5 accounts in the link at playdota.com so some dumb guy who doesn't know how to use the internet add's my info next to all his ID's and now i am the scammer, rlly brilliant one i am starting to think that bo0m is friend for Madnezz and u r just setting me up on this.
he goes and post my info along with that scammer at the thread and come post here as if he is doing a good deed something doesn't seem right here.

i will wait for Steam rep admins reply & i am willing to show proves only to the admins if they think i am involved in this in any way.

normally a scammer wouldn't bother for a rep at steam rep website but thats what i am trying to tell u, there is nothing would make me go through all of this trying to clear everything out unless i was sure that i didn't do anything wrong.

I am going to show you guys a hell load of proof why this guy is a scammer.
First of all, here is a thread which is a compilation of all sorts of info about this guy spread over 2 pages by various members of PD who have been scammed by him, or who figured out he was a scammer soon enough to cancel the deal. The details of how he scammed me are in the OP (original post)
http://www.playdota.com/forums/showthread.php?t=674202
I suggest you go through ALL of it.

Now, this man tells us that he is not Maxalicious/Max/Maxiem/Dana/Dana4life and is actually being impersonated. Well, here is a list of ALL IDs linked to his email addresses (only the ones we know of, he probably has more emails and more IDs on them as well)

Ok, but let's disregard all the facts and proofs I have posted in my thread back at playdota and assume this guy (Why So Serious) is not Maxalicious. Let's assume that WhySoSerious is being impersonated.
Then why is Maxalicious posting these threads:
http://i44.tinypic.com/wlwupe.png
http://www.playdota.com/forums/showthread.php?t=674162(He's offering pretty much EXACTLY the SAME THING as WhySoSerious)
http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2560650 (He made a similar thread on steamforums, but promptly edited it after he got caught for scamming)

So, from the above proof, it is clear that both WhySoSerious and maxalicious (who are the same person) are being impersonated

at the same time. This isn't believable.

Not only that but I would not waste my time trying to prove this guy a scammer, if he actually just paid me my money.
Apart from this, if you saw my skype chat with him from my PD thread, you will see that he said his name was 'Khaled Ramadan' but his Facebook says his name is 'Marwen Mostafa' (http://www.facebook.com/MaXieM). His profile pic is also the same as the one from Skype.

I have also uploaded a whole bunch of pictures that show that the user from steam forums, skype, playdota, steam, and steam rep are the same person. Please have a look at my album over here,
http://www.playdota.com/forums/album.php?albumid=4730


I hope none of you trade with this person. I have already lost 2 dota 2 invites to this guy, and some other people have been scammed by him as well.

Marwen from Egypt, You can act all smart and s✿✿✿ pretending that you didn't do any of these heinous deeds but the truth is that you scam people for dota 2 invites and later trade them off for other games and money.
People like you do not deserve to live in an honest world.

@ Diego then could u plz explain to me why when u search with the email it shows to u those 2 accounts mine & that other guy??!!!
if u want i can take a screen shot from inside my steam with the email address i am using for my steam account which isn't that email u keep telling me.

basically that guy has no screen shot for my acc doing any trades or anything & i didn't even recive any items from him on my acc. all u got against me is that when u search [email protected] my name pop up along with other steam account so it must be, is that all???

i got nothing more to say if u feel that i am a scammer & need to take action towards me then go ahead but i am not the one u r looking for.

and as i understand now u r saying its a prove cos the items that scammer posted at his thread was.
Titan Quest Gold = $30
Sid Meier's Civilization IV: The Complete Edition = $55
From Dust = $15
Titan Quest Gold = $30
L4D2 = $20
Dota 2 accounts
Dota 2 Gifts
Dota 2 Tradable
is the exact same items at my inventory, well let me correct ur info thats not the items i have, i do have 1 or 2 of those but thats not my items, i got other more high value items than this.

nvm this isn't going any where u r in rage cos some guy scammed u & probably u can't get a hold of him so u grab to the 1st person who take time / effort to defend him self just cos my name showed when u searched his email & just cos 2 items from the games he was offering it happens that i got like them at my inventory.

WHAT A HECK OF A PROOF.

its up to admins to decide anyways, i got nothing more to say & i am getting sick of this rlly, i am getting accussed here for nothing.

ask bo0m whats the 1st thing i did when i saw his post, i send him add request over steam to ask whats going on, scammers don't do that.
they don't bother about Steam rep and they don't take the time to defend them self cos they know that they r scammers.
plus if that guy had that amount of accounts as u say then be sure that u won't be able to track him cos he has like multi accounts and those r the ones u only find out about.
as for me all i can say is that i didn't scam no body.
even that guy who created this report in the 1st place, i didn't cheat him in anyway we agreed to trade 4 games for 2x Dota 2 then we traded 1 dota for 2x Games and i decided that i won't trade the other copy that i got cos it was the only 1 that i had so i guess he got angry and decided to report me cos i didn't wanna trade my second copy but i didn't scam him, i traded 1x dota 2 for 2 games and the deal was 2x dota 2 for 4 games, that isn't a scam just we made half part of the deal thats all, why cos i had a better offer on that last Dota 2 couldn't say no to that.

anyways let admins do there work, i don't mind w.e the out come is.

I hope this is proof enough that you scammed me

What can you say to defend yourself now?
I posted hard proof that you have my beta invites

its the same person,

i don't get it, u traded with a guy and u send 1 item to acc and the other 2 another diff acc, how come u didn't send both to the same person?? i find that strange u know.

also that screen shot can be faked easily and even if it wasn't fake that guy seems to be using my name and everything so what if u send to 1 of his accounts and it had the same name as me??!!!
maybe thats why my acc shows up at the search u know.

Why the private inventory bud? Is it because you have all those games? When you asked me to mm for you I believe you had all these games.
Titan Quest Gold = $30
Sid Meier's Civilization IV: The Complete Edition = $55
From Dust = $15
Titan Quest Gold = $30

You keep using this lame excuse saying oh scammers don't care about their steamrep status yes they actually do hence why appeals are actually rejected. I have heard that excuse so many times and these forums haven't been up for to long. Its really like saying someone who is guilty doesn't go to court they just accept their fate when they truly don't. All the scammers want the label gone its not something they hold in pride,they want to go unnoticed so they can scam someone else.

You seriously think I will fake a pic just to frame you? >.> You are the one who faked the Western Union picture to fool me into giving you the keys

And don't act dumb. You know that you can't send 2 dota2 invites to the same ID, it will say 'already owns dota2'

see here is ur mistake, i check that Dana and it has no games so yes u r trying to frame me, how come u trade and u don't send both the games to the same person i find that a bit ODD, also that acc doesn't have any games at so u r lieing here, something is just not right here.

maybe u r not trying to frame me or anything maybe u r just an angry victem and that i understand but i am not the one who scammed u here thats for sure, u have no record or anything to relate me to that except that u send 2 copies 1 to acc named Dana and 1 to acc had nickname as mine is that it??!!!

1 last question if u had that SS long time ago then why didn't u post it before why u post it now??!!! i find that kinda strange maybe to link me in anyway to that scammer so u cause me problems.

@ FreshKidPie yes i tried to use u before as a middle man thats right, TELL ME SINCE WHEN DO SCAMMERS USE MM FROM STEAM REP how would i scam ppl then ffs??!!!!!
and i didn't say that those r the games i got, u just copied that and pasted from that other guy thread.

bottom line SHOW ME A SS FOR ME TALKING TO ANYONE FOR A DEAL AND I DIDN'T FORFILL MY PART OF THE DEAL if u show me that then ban me or do w.e u want i dont mind.

ffs whome r u kidding, look at ur SS those Dota 2 was send from an account that has 0 friends & u even cover ur account name??!!! why is that man??? and how come u have a muel account with no games or anything on??!!!

you just got ur self busted with ur own SS
