    Part 6 : http://oi47.tinypic.com/1z2ddw6.jpg

    Explaination of what this is about :
    I saw an offer made by Shauer Hour ( http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/8639657 (4th Post)) and I decided to add him to accept since it was an excellent offer. About approximately 30 Minutes to an Hour later, he accepted my friend request and we were talking about the trade. He kept trying to get some of my more valuable unusuals included into the deal, but I was only limiting him to some I felt would be profitable for me, as I wasn't positive about accepting with any other unusuals. (This part can be considered highly fake as I couldn't snip what was in the gift he was offering in the trading screen, so I decided that even if I did take the screenshot it would only show a gift without knowledge of what was inside of it.) He traded me and I was putting my items in the trade, when I look to see what is in the present, I see "Vintage Fan of War" in yellow text. I comstantly attempted to take a screenshot of it, but I never was successful.

    If what is in the text isn't good enough, I'd like to bring up this guy has already been reported in at least one other report : http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/steam_0-1-60885246-doctor-hoovy-penguin.22845/

    He has 3 out of 4 of his friends who have commented on his profile banned from valve, one that was involved in Item misrepresentation of a "Vintage Fan of War"

    The Report : http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/76561198079249856.20744/

    If this guy doesn't have enough against him to be tagged as a scammer, then at least a Caution would make the most sense for a case like this.

    If you have any additional questions that need to be answered, or if you can tell me how I can take of pictures of the details of items such as this : http://imgur.com/a/V62qm#MC0EBWn
    (Used Screenshot from this Forum : http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/76561198079249856.20744/ This does not have anything to do with this report, this is just where the screenshot example is from.)

    Thank you for your time, I've already messed up adding a scammer to the list mainly from stupidity, I don't want this to happen again.

    Never tell your password to anyone.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: yes?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: what did you add me back for?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Hello?
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Hello
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Yeah.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: So.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: You added me back.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: You made an offer on my TF2 Logo Little Buddy
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: oh i remember
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: want the fan?
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Sure, I accept
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: its dirty though
    NDzStudios [MCT]: That's not a problem
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I crafted it while I was F2P
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I need a giftwrap
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Oh, I thought you said you would supply giftwrap
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Oh
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I guess
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: fine
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: i will
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I'll add some hats for inconveinience
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: alright.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: just a second
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: let me launch tf2 and wrap it
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Ok
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: what about the unusual tosslecap?
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I'm keeping it currently, I dont even have a trade for it
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Kabuto?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: No Kabuto?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Its alright if you say no.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I'm just thining right now, but I'm not too sure about the kabuto
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Ok
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: well the fan is about 2 buds
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: so...
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: gotta go.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: come back in about an hour
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: then we trade
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I'm looking for a bit more on the kabuto anyways
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Ok
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Even though people are valuing it lower, I'm willing to keep it for a while
    NDzStudios [MCT]: To get the buyer that's paying what I would be comfortable with
    NDzStudios [MCT]: But anyways, I'll see you in an hour then
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: then can you add sweets to the hat?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: And by the way, I'm back.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Well, I did say I'll add some hats for inconveinience so basically
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: oh wait
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: what about the liquidator
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Actually, I'd probably do that instead if you want
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: its 1.1-1.4 buds
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Well, now I'm getting confused. Do you want to offer on the liquidator or the little buddy?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: liquidator.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Ok, and how much do you want me to add exactly?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin is now playing Team Fortress 2. Click here to join.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Couple of hats.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: thats all I'm asking.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Ok
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Let me show you the hats
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin has accepted your request to trade.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: sure you don't wanna do the kabuto?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Its worth less than the fan
    NDzStudios [MCT]: As I said before, I'd prefer to look for a higher offer, something similar to what I sold my Flies Kabuto before for, which was around 2.5
    NDzStudios [MCT]: If I take 7 months to do so like my Eerie Steel Toe, so be it
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Oh alright.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: reality headset?
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Meh, same situation except I'm looking for less, and I didnt have a flies VRH originally
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: How do I wrap the gift?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I go to "items"
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: then I cliked on the the giftwrap
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: then I clicked wrap gift
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: and then I clicked on the fan
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: and it said...
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: "wrapping gift in 5...4...3...2...1..."
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: then it disappeared
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Hmm
    NDzStudios [MCT]: You could try restarting tf2, as I've actually oddly enough I've never wrapped anything in tf2 before :P
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I guess.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Do you have to be premium.
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: to wrap.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I dont think so
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin is now playing Team Fortress 2. Click here to join.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Any luck with finding it?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I can't wrap it somehow
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: :/
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Dunno how
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Well, since it appears you already know how it's just not being successful is kind of odd
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Hmmm...
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I dunno
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I'm not too sure why it isnt working, you should be able to just wrap it perfectly fine, maybe the valve servers are screwed up right now
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Well...
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Want to try tomorrow?
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: eeeh...
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: Well...
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: I'm trying.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: It isnt a problem if it doesnt work today
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin: trying to get friends to help
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Ok
    Doctor Hoovy Penguin has changed their name to Shauer.
    Shauer has changed their name to Shauer Hour.
    Shauer Hour: here dude
    You have accepted the trade request from Shauer Hour.
    Shauer Hour: wrapped it
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Ok
    Shauer Hour: finally found out how
    Shauer Hour: the hats and unusual?
    Shauer Hour: gonna add it in
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Yeah
    Shauer Hour: glitched
    You have accepted the trade request from Shauer Hour.
    Shauer Hour: why does it keep glitching
    You have accepted the trade request from Shauer Hour.
    Shauer Hour: ok its good now
    Shauer Hour: Finally wrapped it
    NDzStudios [MCT]: One min, kind of laggy right now
    NDzStudios [MCT]: brb
    Shauer Hour: alright.
    Shauer Hour: when are you gonna be back?
    Shauer Hour: i gotta go
    Shauer Hour: -_-
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Internet disconnect there for a split second
    Shauer Hour has accepted your request to trade.
    Shauer Hour: alright.
    Shauer Hour: I'm ready when you are.
    Shauer Hour: there.
    Shauer Hour: Finally.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Wait, I have a question
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Why is your bp private?
    Shauer Hour: Because I don't have many good items.
    Shauer Hour: I don't have any hats.
    Shauer Hour: Just some crappy vintages and this fanowar
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I know this is a scam, I can see it's renamed
    Shauer Hour: How?
    Shauer Hour: How is this a scam/
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Easily by colour of text
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Of what is labelled on the item
    Shauer Hour: It isn't
    Shauer Hour: Well.
    Shauer Hour: See you later if you don't want to do it.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I'm not going to trade my unusual for a normal fan of war
    Shauer Hour: Alright then.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: Goodbye
    Shauer Hour: Its not a scam.
    Shauer Hour: Goodbye.
    Shauer Hour: Report me if you want.
    Shauer Hour: Its not a scam.
    NDzStudios [MCT]: I will
    NDzStudios [MCT]: See you later

    Also I apologize if this Report is too long, I tend to write this way as it provides a more accurate description of the situation.

    Yeah as I mentioned before, I tried to just take a screenshot of the giftbox and what it contains with the "Snipping Tool", but every time I hovered my mouse over the item then went to click "New" the item description disappeared. Him with a private Backpack doesn't help what I'm trying to prove but the offer is right in my trade so :/

    Ah good! I just posted in the Discussion part of TF2OP because I wasn't sure where to post this. He had added me randomly and said all of this to me http://imgur.com/QHQ6z6U

    The trade was me showing my Unusuals, he said it was the mining light in the main chat, I exited the trade. Then he said the V. FoW. I knew it was worth 2x the price of the Unusual.. so it seemed skeptical.. then after I said "That makes no sense" he said whatever he said and blocked me 30 seconds later.

    He didnt even keep his story straight, he told me that he crafted it and told you his friend gave it to him.
