What happened? Description:

The accused person added me on steam and told me that he owns this youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/MrDeftEx/featured) and that he can make a video about the site I'm moderating in exchange of money. I have told him that we would pay him after him uploading the video, but he wanted the money before the video. So I told him to go to his youtube channels latest video and add to the description "Proof to Nutsplice" and he did it. But the way he did it, was to contact the actual channel owner and saying that he found a good deal for him and that he needs to change the description for proof to me. And the actual channel owner surprisingly did it. In the mean time I was browsing that youtube channel and found a link to the steam of the actual owner. Then I told the scammer if he has any main accounts and he sent me a link to the same actual channel owner. I asked him to add me in there, but he said he is at his friends, doesn't have the phone to connect to his main and that he is going to a vacation in 7 days and he won't be able to record the video tommorow, only today. Then I contacted one of the marketing managers who contacted me with the actual channel owner and he explained everything to me and said it wasn't him all the time. Every peace of proof is in the pictures that I will attach.​

I have accidentally created 2 forums in a row, please close one of them, thanks!

He was impersonating the youtuber. When I asked the impersonator to change the description in the video he messaged the real owner and said he found a good deal for him for $700 and the impersonator asked the real owner to change the description, which the real owner surprisingly did. So I thought that the impersonator was the real guy (which he was not). Under more investigation I have revealed his very smart and complex scam method.

I thought I did explain everything normally, but its not understandable I see. This guy (http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198143710576/) was impersonating this youtuber (https://steamcommunity.com/id/ExDeft ; https://www.youtube.com/user/MrDeftEx/featured)

I can upload full screen screenshots which I took. To be clear the real youtubers name is "Double Tap" and the impersonator is Muody.
