Scam Report

Report Type: [Money] Other cash fraud (webmoney, bitcoin, etc)
Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

Accused profile: 76561197960903718

Victim profile: 76561198025303132

What happened? Description:

I received a comment on my TF2 review offering to buy my backpack using CashApp.
He offered $2500.
He 's been on Steam for 18 years and has a community level of 170.
I checked this site and saw no strikes or bans.
After a bit of back and forth I accepted the trade.
He immediately blocked me and set his inventory to private.

He took over 1000 items worth around $2000 (not including level 100, Halloween spells, Early EotL Supporter Tags, etc.).

Afterwords I found out he recently scammed another player for around $1000 on the "EnderSlicer" Steam group.

I reported him on Steam and now I'm reporting him here.​

Here is another user recently scammed by him. (I didn't find this until afterwords obviously). View attachment 795256


Here was the trade offer he sent. Hopefully 5 images are enough, he took over 1000 items.

Hey there

[Yesterday, 9:54 PM]
gold3agle:
Assuming you just added me regarding my offer?

[Yesterday, 9:59 PM]
gold3agle:
Let me know if you’re still interested in my offer

[Yesterday, 10:11 PM]
My Squid:
Yes, I am interested. Pains me to let it go. Over a decade worth of trading, but I just don't really play TF2 anymore.
I'm a bit wary of being scammed, so how do we do this?

[Yesterday, 10:11 PM]
gold3agle:
I understand been there done that.
I have rep, I’m level 170, been on Steam for 18 years, etc. you can check me out
I’m also currently driving home, can I catch you in 2 hours to work it out?

[Yesterday, 10:12 PM]
My Squid:
Sure.

[Yesterday, 10:12 PM]
gold3agle:
Awesome, thank you. Will message you once I’m home. :good:

[Yesterday, 11:58 PM]
gold3agle:
Will be home in 30, sorry for the wait

[Yesterday, 11:58 PM]
My Squid:
No worries.

[12:31 AM]
gold3agle:
Back here
Sorry for keeping you waiting

[12:32 AM]
My Squid:
Don't worry about it.
So, how do we go about doing this?

[12:32 AM]
gold3agle:
Did you go over my rep? and if paypal it will be as Friends/Family and I'll cover fees if there's any.

[12:33 AM]
My Squid:
I don't have Paypal, but I do have Cash App.

[12:34 AM]
gold3agle:
I can do that too, no problem. All I'll need is your cashtag and trade offer

[12:35 AM]
My Squid:
My cashtag is $JesseSquid

[12:35 AM]
gold3agle:
Awesome, give me a sec to gather up the trade offer
You seem to like Squids

[12:35 AM]
My Squid:
lol Long story.
As for the trade offer, I'd like to keep my "Totally Lame Eyelander." It was the first thing I ever unboxed, still has sentimental value.

[12:36 AM]
gold3agle:
Sure thing, I won't include it.
It will take me a couple of minutes to gather it up since it's a lot of items

[12:37 AM]
My Squid:
Okay

[12:40 AM]
gold3agle:
gold3agle sent you a new trade offerView trade offer
Offer sent, let me know once confirmed. Will probably take 5-10 minutes to show up in my inventory since it's a large trade.
And we agreed on $2,500 right?

[12:40 AM]
My Squid:
Correct.
But I'm not "Confirming" the trade until I have the money in my account.
Is that fine?

[12:42 AM]
gold3agle:
I will need to see the items, the moment they hit my inventory you'll get your payment like asked. Not worth risking my rep over a trade like that. Been on Steam and been around for too long to pull anything shady
like promised*^

[12:43 AM]
My Squid:
This is what was concerning me. Neither of us want to go first.

[12:44 AM]
gold3agle:
Right but you need to understand that it works based on reputation when it comes to cash trading. Sometimes when people have more rep than me I also go first.. just the way it works
And you can clearly see my profile and judge it yourself, level 170, 18 years, i have unusuals and sold over 2,000 keys in the past 6 months for cash without any issues
You're also welcome to take a video/screenshots and if anything goes wrong you can feel free to send it to Steam Support

[12:45 AM]
My Squid:
Give me a couple more minutes to think it over.

[12:45 AM]
gold3agle:
Sure thingh
thing*

[12:53 AM]
My Squid:
Before I go through with this, what is your interest in my BP?
You don't really seem like a collector.

[12:53 AM]
gold3agle:
Not only profit, gonna keep some of the spelled items that I’m interested in mostly, sell some of the Stranges and keep some of the Stranges

[12:56 AM]
My Squid:
Because, some of those collections took forever. Tons of level 100's, Every Festive Weapon, Every End of the Line item with "Early Supporter" tag. Almost finished the Robo-Hat collection at 100.

[12:57 AM]
gold3agle:
Yeah, I’m aware of that as well. People don’t really over pay for an item with Early Supporter tag these days so I’m likely going to keep it for myself.

[12:58 AM]
My Squid:
Alright then, let's do this.

[12:58 AM]
gold3agle:
Sounds good, let me know once confirmed and send me your cash tag again

[12:58 AM]
My Squid:
$JesseSquid

[12:59 AM]
gold3agle:
Awesome, will let you know the moment the items hit my inventory. Won’t take more than 5-10 minutes

[1:01 AM]
My Squid:
Sent

[1:02 AM]
gold3agle:
kk will let you know once they hit
I think I see em
One sec
$JesseSquid right?

[1:07 AM]
My Squid:
Correct

[1:07 AM]
gold3agle:
One sec

I could use some clarification on the first part.
We were only "friends" for a couple of hours.
He has since removed and blocked me.

Here's the trade offer he sent me.



Hovering over user.


His profile has now made his inventory private.



Thankfully I kept chat open so it didn't get deleted.



Also unedited CashApp
