    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561197963375356

    Victim profile: 76561198042189986

    What happened? Description:
    He offered me a trade, his Australium Medi Gun for my Burly Beast. At first, I thought he was crazy but I went along with it. Then he links me to someone impersonating a valve employee, saying that I should trade with him to "check my item". Being smart, I ran the impersonator's URL through SteamREP and called him out on it, he asked for my trade offer URL, I refused and he unfriended me.

    No trade actually happened, but it's pretty clear that he tried to scam me. I'm sure you guys already know about the Doug Lombardi impersonator, and it's clear that Nacho is affiliated with him in some way and it would be best to flag his account as well.​

    Provide Evidence:

    Never tell your password to anyone.
    Nacho is currently offline, they will receive your message the next time they log in.
    Nacho is now Online.

    Accidental Tea: Wew, that's really generous but I'm probably gonna hold onto it
    Nacho: what do you mean ?
    Accidental Tea: I like the aussie and I'm not gonna trade it, at least not right now.
    Nacho: how about your other items mate ?
    Accidental Tea: Only other thing that's really worth anything is my kritzkrieg, which also isnt for sale
    Nacho: i have a good offer to your Vintage Professional Killstreak Kritzkrieg
    Accidental Tea: I feel like that's a bot response or something

    Hello @Accidental Tea ,

    Can you please provide the SteamRep block of the fake middleman?

    Also, you didn't take a screenshot of the accused's profile while you were friends, which means I can't confirm that you are reporting the right user. Can you please go to your Activity tab on Steam, and find where you added the accused, take a screenshot of this from your web browser with your cursor hovering over their avatar such that the URL shows up in the bottom left of the window. Please see the screenshot guide in my signature.

    Thanks.
