    desc. He told me to add him to discuss a trade for one of my unusual hats on outpost. I accepted and he told me he wanted to give me $60 of steam credit using the beta. he then used the /me command in chat to say: "fablemist has transfered $60.00 into your Steam Wallet. Transaction will be completed after the trade." This is when i knew he was a scammer.

    fablemist: After trade is done you get the money and i get the hat.
    AnTiDoWn3r: Can you do a test run first?
    fablemist: No, it'll take my money. I found that out the hard way >.>
    AnTiDoWn3r: do it with one item
    AnTiDoWn3r: like a wep

    SO many people have been either scammed or approached by a scammer claiming they can send funds through steam, I think many people think it would work believing it must be part of the tf2 market! Thanks for the report, an admin should be on the case shortly :)

    Copypaste from the thread about cuteninja68:

    +1

    I talked to a guy on his friends list and he was trying to do it a second time.

    There's a guy named fablemist doing the same thing. He wanted to buy an unusual from my friend for $400, but defriended me when I called him out on his one day account age.

    This guy also appears to be doing the same thing based on his account age, the fact that he was in the same Steam group as the other two, and because his name is similar to cuteninja's avatar.
