    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Quick-switch trade scam or attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198064006955 (Potato Jackson)

    Victim profile: 76561198044709648

    What happened? Description:
    I added a trade listing of a Collector's Festive Jarate, worth a few buds. I was asking for offers. Potato added me and offered me 2 scrap and 4 trading cards. He told me this was a bargain as there was no price. I followed along with the trade as he consistently tried to scam me, assuming I knew nothing about trading. He was quite convincing, and although I declined he could do the same to someone else.​

    Provide Evidence:

    ★Strange Armadillo★: How much is my Jarate? 20:12:36
    Potato Jackson: there is no designated price for this, so I'm cutting you a bargain 20:12:48
    ★Strange Armadillo★: O. 20:13:04
    ★Strange Armadillo★: Ok. 20:13:06
    ★Strange Armadillo★: Ok? Ready? 20:13:43

    I then told him he was trying to scam me. He then continuously said he wasn't and removed me.

    ★Strange Armadillo★: Hey
    ★Strange Armadillo★: Can I help?
    Potato Jackson: ajrate?
    Potato Jackson: "Jarate?"
    ★Strange Armadillo★: What kind of price we looking at?
    Potato Jackson: well
    Potato Jackson: I'll give you .22 in metal and some trading cards (each worth .11)

    Potato Jackson: How about that?
    ★Strange Armadillo★: Report time.
    Potato Jackson: well
    Potato Jackson: that was interesting.
    Potato Jackson: lol
    ★Strange Armadillo★: Yup, please. Don't scam.
