    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] Other cash fraud (webmoney, bitcoin, etc)
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561197961658481

    Victim profile: 76561198349522577

    What happened? Description:
    Added me, proceeded to offer to buy my knife for buff price, then gave me fake cashrep. I was never actually scammed but it was a (poor) attempt but other people have fallen for it as well after reading more reports on SteamRep.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Sent me his fake cashrep page after I asked for cashrep: https://steamtraderep.com/user/76561197961658481

    I told him I nor my friends had never heard of the website and that I needed to see a CSGORep cashrep thread for verifiable cashrep. He then linked me to his Facebook trading group and his Reddit account to provide further "rep".

    After doing some digging on this "steamtraderep" page I noticed some of the other fake accounts have the exact same comments from the same people posted at the same time. It seems you can connect a steam account to a fake rep page without logging into the account.
    Both of these pages below have the exact same comments from the same users at the same time. I also linked him other very similar SteamRep reports (using same fake website and same Facebook page as rep) and he told me those were impersonator accounts.

    After I confronted him with this and offered the same trade but with a middleman, he blocked me.​

    Declined - you can't just report someone assuming they won't trade with you properly or that they won't use a middleman.
    SR doesn't review issues with fake rep either that would make the report invalid either way.
    Please do not submit reports like this - if you do not wish to trade with someone don't.
    Declined.
