    Greetings,

    Please provide us with the Steam profile URL for the account you traded the items to. You can find it from your Steam inventory history ( https://steamcommunity.com/my/inventoryhistory ) by right-clicking on the name of the account in the trade and selecting "Copy link address" (or the similar option for your browser).

    All the best,

    Greetings,

    http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198303774735 is not an OPSkins storage account.


    We regret to inform you that you've been scammed.

    If someone asked you to list an item on OPSkins to do the trade they scammed you.
    There is absolutely no reason to list an item on OPSkins for someone else since they can not buy them since all the items listed on our site are displayed publicly and there are no private trades.

    We are very sorry that you got scammed but as the items were traded to an account that is not associated with us, we can't refund you or return the item(s) to you.

    A very common scam is someone reaches out to you and asks you to do a private trade on OpSkins or install a malicious extension on your browser, allowing them to intercept the listing using their own bot, stealing your item and changing your interface to make it look like you got paid for it. We provide our users with several options to ensure them they are trading with a real OPSkins Bot:
    • All our bots are listed on a private Steam Group showing the accounts that are officially related to us. https://steamcommunity.com/groups/opskins-bots any other bot not listed here is fake.
    • All our bots will provide you with a unique Sale ID and Security Token, be aware that if the scammers are able to see your screen as you list the item for sale,
    They might be able to copy this information from you.

    Sometimes but not always, scammer ask you to download something like a screenshot application, duplicate or stolen item checker. This is a virus.
    OPSkins does not have any official Chrome extensions or plugins. Google does not review items that people upload to the Chrome Web Store and that means that the hackers might upload a malicious file onto their App Store. If someone asks you to install something, they are probably trying to scam you

    If you send us his Steam ID we will research it and block his IP address and ban all of his accounts from using Opskins for life. Unfortunately most of the time these accounts are throwaways that never used our site before. We are aware that there are groups of individuals attempting to scam our users and we will do everything we can to prevent them from doing any harm to our user base.

    These scammers often do things like claim they are an "Opskins Reseller", provide (fake) screenshots showing their large balance on the site, and often have a lot of fake rep on their Steam profiles.

    Scammers often target OPSkins users as many of our users have high value items. You can read up on various common scams here:

    Greetings,

    We are very sorry that you got tricked or scammed and that this happened to you.

    It is important that you realize that the items were traded to an account that is not associated with us.
    We can't refund you or return the item(s) to you as you didn't give them to us in the first place.

    If you got social engineered you can send us any send us any chat logs it might be helpful and we will try to hunt them down
    but we won't be able to get your items back to you but you might get some satisfaction if we can get them in trouble.

    If they tricked you into installing a malware extension which basically think of like a virus that gives them full control of your computer.
    You can report it.
    Please browse to:
    https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/apps
    Enter the name of the malware extension that you installed.
    Then click on ! Report Abuse.
    Then select Malware and write any information you want and then click Submit.

    It really does sadden us that our users get scammed. We try to warn you as much as possible.
    We have a pinned post on Reddit:
    https://www.reddit.com/r/opskins/comments/4742c4/common_scams_to_watch_out_for/
    We have it on our blog
    https://blog.opskins.com/?p=2227
    We even mention it on the front page of our site, and make people click a checkbox acknowledging these type of scams.

    You might also want to consider switching to a different more secure browser (For example: Firefox) that doesn't allow unsigned extensions when accessing sites like your Bank, PayPal, OPSkins etc.
    Because even after you delete a chrome extension they can stay hidden and continue to steal from you.

    All the best,
    Kameron

    Don't copy/paste support info from whoever next time - that isn't helpful.

    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History for last few days to present (NOT TRADE OFFER!!)- open this with a web browser, move your mouse over the users name in question so it shows up the hypertext popup URL at the bottom of the screen - take the screen shot DO NOT edit it in anyway and upload.
