  1. Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198159532908

    Victim profile: 76561198051938363

    What happened? Description:
    Hi, so I had Shadow Daggers MW Ultraviolet, and I wanted to trade them for a different knife, I posted in the trading CSGO discussion and got added by a user, he said he will trade me a knife through bitskins and I must trade to him, I said I don't trust this method so I will only accept this trade if I receive the knife first from Bitskins, and then I will trade my knife to him.
    He said that it is fine and that he just wants to trust me first, so he said he will trade to me first but there are 3 conditions, first one was that I add his one friend, so I added him, he said he was in a dota 2 game and will accept just now, he said this was to make sure that if I take the knife and block him, he can also just find and report me from the friends account, the second condition was that I must tell him 3 of my closest friends that I trust on steam, so I told him 3 of my friends names and that they can all vouch for me that I am trustworthy, he then chose one of my friends (Kenny) and said, "to know I am trustworthy, I must first trade my knife to my friend Kenny, then Kenny must take a screenshot of the trade and then reject it" so I said that is fair, and Kenny messaged me asking if I know this user that added him, so I said yes, and explained to Kenny that I need to trade to him, he needs to reject the item but take a screenshot and send it, once he has done that, I would receive the item from Bitskins and I can trade it to the original account.
    So I sent the trade offer and then I saw that the item was no longer in my inventory, and then I checked Kennys profile and it was in his inventory as he accepted and he just made the account look like my friends Kenny, so it had the same profile picture and name, so i thought I was talking and speaking to my friend but it was actually from Condition 1, where I added his friend, he then changed that account to match my friends account and scammed me out of the knife, they then both blocked me and the knife is sitting in the "fake Kenny" inventory, so not on the main.

    My apologies if I didn't explain well or if I have added too much information or too little, I will be more than happy to provide more but I tried to stick to the guidelines as best as I can, apologies if I am wasting your time.​

    Provide Evidence:
    This is the second user that pretended to be my friends profile, this is the account that received the item.

    So you got messaged by the other user account vs you messaging them if I read this right? Were you friends with them already or something? I believe steam prompts you with a spam message if someone messages you that isn't already your friend.

    Also I'm fixing the block

    I need the following as well.
    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History (thru a computer not mobile) showing for sure the trade in question(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.

  3. Hi, Account 1 = is the one I was dealing with, and one of the conditions was adding their friend (Which in the end was account 2 that changed its details to my friends details)
    So spoke to account 1, he said I must send a trade to my friend Kenny, and the same moment, a Kenny messaged me (It was him on account 2 that I already added, and he changed the details to match my friend Kenny's details, so it looked like I was talking to my real friend Kenny and not the fake kenny) Hope that clears it up?
