    Barni's chat
    Description:

    I have a thread on TF2Outpost advertising that I am selling Buds, Refined, and Keys. At the moment, I don't have any of them, but the trade is still up with "Keys (0), Refined(0), Buds (0)" in red letters and "Low on stock, will have more soon. Waiting for after the update to sell" in large, bold yellow letters.
    It also has "Do not add me without posting here first" in the description, because usually people that don't want to post are very often scammers.

    So, barni added me and said yo, but I wasn't on the computer at that time. Fast forward several hours, and I get onto my computer, accept raider into my friends list, and message barni and then raider to find out what they want.
    I messaged barni first, and then raider. Raider is the first to respond, and says the "wtb buds for RL money via pp"
    I don't have any buds, and he didn't post on my friends list, so I just remove him from friends right there.
    A minute or so later, barni messages me with the almost the exact same thing.
    I remove him too, and then look at both of their profiles.
    Barni got +rep from Raider and StillNoxx about half an hour apart. (July 3rd, 6:30 and 7:30 respectively)
    Raider got +rep from StillNoxx.
    Neither of them have much in their backpacks. Untradables and crates.
    Barni only has 40 hours of playtime, 39.6 of it is from this week. And yet he is buying buds.

    Seems like an alt account, or alt accounts, and fake rep.
    I don't know whether you guys will decide it's needed to mark them as caution or not, I just figured it is better to post suspicious things than let some newer trader deal with it.

    Adding notes about them both. Thank you for the report- feel free to always report anything suspicious! I will also investigate the possibility that they are alts further.
