    Description: Adam adds me about 3 days ago Thanking me for joining his group called UHM. We talk about ten minutes then it ends, today he messages me saying that he is depressed because he owes someone 3.5 buds. At this point I knew he was going to ask for items. Eventually he says something along the lines of ''Oh you have a unusual! That would be just what I need to pay back the debt I have!'' Funny how he wants the most expensive item in my inventory. He then goes on to say that he would pay me 2 buds later and even make me Admin on all of his servers! Witch is not good, considering the issue before with his servers where you could buy your way to Admin position and now he is doing the same, I lost all respect for UHM Community. We chat a little bit after this and he shows a picture of the Admin ''Nero Chinki'' saying that I am just over reacting and that it is not a scam attempt at all. I really don't expect him to get a ban or any punishment I just though I would let you know, better to be safe then sorry!

    NinjaNick: Okay then we can do it later I will be on
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Why not now?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: You know how bad it is to be in debt.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Please dude.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: You will free me from this debt.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Nick?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Dont leave me man
    NinjaNick: I am here xD
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Thank god.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Can u trade over the unusual?
    NinjaNick: If you pay me 2 buds now I can?

    [UHM Owner] Adam: Do you not know what a DEBT is?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I do not have enough, and now your asking me for 2 buds, when ur unusuals is like 0.89
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Some friend u are.
    NinjaNick: Wait
    NinjaNick: In stead of me giving you my unusual and then you would pay me 2 buds later, why dont you just get the 2 buds now that you need?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Because i dont ahve enough]
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Dude
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Just forget it.
    NinjaNick: It just doesnt make sense to me
    NinjaNick: Well I dont want to leave you in the dust
    [UHM Owner] Adam: So you will trade it over?

    NinjaNick: I am a little scared that you will scam me
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I wont dude.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I`m a man of my owrd.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Word*
    NinjaNick: I checked your BP and you have one pure ear bud and two unusuals! Why do you need mine!? You have so much!
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Trust me
    [UHM Owner] Adam: My unusuals are crap
    NinjaNick: Your whole BP is worth $350 you have more then enough items to pay it your self
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I dont want to give it ALL away
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Thanks for having interest in helping me anyawy.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Anyway*
    NinjaNick: Hmm, well from what I can tell this was a scam attempt and I will probably be reporting this to steam rep and let them take it from there. If they find you not being a scammer then :D for you! But if you are then happy having that tag with your account forever. Until then anything you say I can and will screen shot. By the way making me a Admin because I gave you a unusual is not cool, I already read everything you have ever posted on Steam Rep and wanting to be a Moserator to you wanting your Group UHM as a friend with them. And the whole being able to buy Admin issue, so those are my words bye bye. And I will not be removing or blocking you, I only will if they post you as being guilty if you are not then I will not unfriend you and not block you
    [UHM Owner] Adam: NinjaNick.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I`m not a scammer.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I was just seeing if you wanted to help me man.
    NinjaNick: I dont even know you! I added you like 3 days ago and we talked for all of 10 minutes
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I know.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: But that still doesn`t make me a Scammer.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Look dude, your a member of [UHM]. And I would never scam a member of [UHM]
    NinjaNick: We will let Steam Rep handle it
    NinjaNick: If you think you are not a scammer then you are not one, but I would still like Steam Rep to see it first
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I was applying to become a SR moderator aswell :(
    NinjaNick: Yes I saw that, you might get in
    NinjaNick: But you brought this on your self asking a stranger for his most expensive item to ''borrow'' to pay back a mistery debt
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Mystery*
    NinjaNick: xD
    [UHM Owner] Adam: :P
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Look dude, I`m not a scammer.
    NinjaNick: No matter what you say I am reporting it right this moment actually.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Okay.
    NinjaNick: If they find it not being a scam attempt then thats great! And you are not a scammer!
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Do u want the story of why im in debt?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: [UHM Owner] Adam: Its a long story, but i will make it short.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Guy wants my RuneScape account
    [UHM Owner] Adam: He pays me 5 buds
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I give him Runescape account
    [UHM Owner] Adam: He doesnt like the runescape account, EVEN THOUGH i stated what it had on it.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: He reports account
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Account gets banned
    [UHM Owner] Adam: He wants 3.5 buds.
    NinjaNick: I would like to hear it yes
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Thats a copy and paste
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I was talking to Nero Chinki
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Nero Chinki: Thats not being in debt, thats blackmailing
    Nero Chinki: He was informed about what he was gonna get
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Blackmailing?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Oh
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I know
    [UHM Owner] Adam: And now i`m gonna be marked as a SR scammer!
    Nero Chinki: I doubt that
    NinjaNick: Why would you want to give him 3.5 buds if he asked for it?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Well, he was owner of a community.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: I mean like, i LOVE the community.
    [UHM Owner] Adam: And i wanted to do what was best.
    NinjaNick: What community?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: =USE= Gaming
    NinjaNick: Never heard of it
    [UHM Owner] Adam: So your still gonna report me?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Nero Chinki: I dont really see what point he has that would mark you
    Nero Chinki: Your just overexagerating atm due to shock
    NinjaNick: That is what your friend is posting about me?
    [UHM Owner] Adam: No no
    [UHM Owner] Adam: Nero is a SR Moderator
    [UHM Owner] Adam: We have known eachother for YEARS
    [UHM Owner] Adam: And he knows i`m not a Scammer

    Hi Nick,

    I was not trying to scam you, I was just trying to see if you would help me out. I was not pushy, I did not send you a trade request or anything like that. I was just trying to see if you wanted to help me!

    EIDT: I assumed that Nero Chinki was saying that my report was useless and I was over reacting but we had a chat and he cleared things up. I no longer know that Nero is in anyway attempting to defend Adam. Thank you Nero for clearing that up.

    After following a different strand of research, this report was deemed a attempt of scamming by the "borrow" of [name item here] method.

    The accused account will be marked as a alt of:
    | steamname: Deuce
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:444182
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197961154092
    | customURL: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Deucey
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561197961154092

    Which was a already marked account.

    Also, it will recieve a Offense for this report
    Also, it will recieve a Offense for the original strain of research for scamming a unusual (which was paid back under pressure to the victim).
    Also, SOP admin has been notified of a certain piece of evidence that was to interest of SOP, which may lead to another SOP tag. This is up for SOP to decide.

    Also 2 other Confirmed alt accounts where found:
