(showing steam community link, pic, nickname, friends and groups) | Fake Middleman 1 Fake middleman 2 | Fake middleman - Friends list (incase necessary) Description: Was contacted by someone interested in buying a unusual (vivid prince tavishes) for way more than the usual asking price ($240) - was suspicious at first, checked his steamrep and he'd already been reported twice as scamming - using the same amounts and, placing the $ symbol after the amount. Checked the middleman he wanted to use, had a friend set up as a fake middleman ready for it. Backed out of it (apologies if i seemed rather cocky/arrogant at the end) Thought it'd be best to report him just to let people know he's still active and add onto his record ~ Thanks!.

Embrus: what is it? Malcovent: Description: Friend was contacted by this scammer initially offering an unusual swap, after my friend declined Korrterra went back to his scamming ways and offered $240 paypal. He does supply a middleman list rather than using a fake like in previous scams before but soon after my friend contacts me and I find he is a reported scammer. After outing him, he briefly blocks us both but then comes back online to speak to me, he then admits he's a scammer out of boredom and denies anything will happen to him if he is reported again. Malcovent: same amount even Malcovent: wow, you're a really s✿✿✿ scammer :D Malcovent: i don't even deal in selling unusuals and i managed to find it out in less than 10 minutes of searching Embrus: Oh thx Malcovent: you're welcome :) Malcovent: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198041285761 Malcovent: cute Malcovent: oh well :) Fake middleman account flagged and reported, will also contribute this onto your steamrep/inform the real lazy Malcovent: god forbid, maybe oneday you'll actually be able to make $240 serving me burgers!
