    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561197960541191

    Victim profile: 76561198291231342

    What happened? Description:
    he offered me cash for items im accusing him for middleman scam where he gets a middleman he is friends with or its another one of his accounts then i would send the skin to the middleman and i wouldnt get the money. He sent a link to reddit off some fake middleman which i realized after doing some research into what the subredit was. I know them from csgotraders where i put up my gloves for sale for items or cash and he added me through there. He then offered me $85 for my gloves in bank as i prefer not to use paypal or bitcoin. Then asked me if we could use middleman. Wasnt sure about it at first but then thought it would be a good idea. Then i told him he was scamming me and he unfriended me and hasnt spoken back. There are also several reddit posts saying the subreddit he sent me is a huge scam.​

    Sorry but you can't submit reports here on assumptions - anyone can be a middleman and anyone can suggest anyone they like to be one.
    It is entirely up to you to decide if you wish to do the trade or not. You have no idea if the user would have followed thru with the deal, if the middleman selected was legit or not.
    Please do not submit reports here based on assumptions.

    Nothing provided suggests/shows this user is or was guilty of any wrong doing per policy.
    Declined.
