Accepted Report: 76561197963740595 - ([TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items)

Scam Report

Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

Accused profile: 76561197963740595

Victim profile: 76561198171082595

What happened? Description:

So this guy randomly added me yesterday, but I had to wait until today until he responded. Before I even spoke to him, I checked his rep, which said "No Special Reputation". And then I checked his inventory and it was Private. Knew this profile was a scammer's when I spotted that, and also when I clicked on his inventory via Profile Info, it took me to the REAL Darkahy Mastah's inventory (the trader this scumbag was impersonating).

After speaking to this guy for nearly 10 minutes due to delays, he told me he was buying and reselling items on OPSkins, which I knew was a very popular scam method among those scumbag scammers. I pretended to list my Unusual Blizzardy Storm Hard Counter (the item this profile tried to scam from me), but in reality, I didn't. Even so, a fake bot profile sent me a trade offer (which I declined after exposing this scammer). At this point, I stopped fooling around and busted him. He immediately disconnected afterwards.

P.S: This profile has also impersonated other traders in the past, hence all these other aliases as Evidence. I'll also provide the IDs of the fake bot used by this scammer in "Provide Evidence"​
