Description:

So this kid adds me saying he's interested in my Blizzardy Shako. He claims he has 2 buds pure for it, so we go into a trade. Then he claims he "can't see" my Shako when I put it in the trade area, but claims he put his supposed 2 buds in. He says it's a glitch and we should "trade anyway". Yeah, right. I check his inventory and he has zero buds. I call him out on his bullshit and he removes me.

Pretty pathetic scam attempt, and if you read the comments on his profile, I'm not the only person who he's tried this on.

Do you have any more evidence associated with scam attempt?
I have marked this thread as need more info.

I've posted pretty much all the evidence I have against this guy. It was clear to me what he was trying to do, and I don't see how it possibly could NOT have been a scam attempt.

Thank you. I have marked this thread as ready for review. A SteamRep admin will continue processing it shortly.
