    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Trade Offer Fraud] Using Trade Offer URL fraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561197969109864

    Victim profile: 76561198062662697

    What happened? Description:
    He randomly added me and asked if I would trade my Gold Botkiller Sniper Rifle for 12 keys.
    After which he continued with the "OPSKINS" scam.​

    Provide Evidence:
    All of the photos have been uploaded as "Attached files".
    Chat #1 and #2 are the chats (obviously) in which he starts off well, until the whole "have you unboxed it" thing.
    After following through and telling him I did the opskins part. He sent me a trade offer from his alt account "Bot's trade offer".
    And the other two are pretty self explainatory.​

    @Nyahu Well biggest issue here is you didn't take a full screenshot of the users profile WHILE friends - there fore I can't confirm identity to the accused.
    Nothing else that I can sometimes uses proves this either.
    Follow next set of instructions pls.

    Thanks - issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the popup of the profile. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's Full Screen and make sure steam client URL is enabled, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Review this screenshot guide to help you:

    Sorry, I didn't take any pictures of his profile, while he was still in my friends' list.

    This is embarrassing, but if...
    If a day after my contact with the scammer, the real Hugh added me, would that remove the event from the 3-rd?
    Because the fake one added me on the 3rd, and on the 4th the real one added me, to ask me to report the other guy.
    Would that be possible?

    It really doesn't make any sense, but if they shared the same name is it possible that steam derped?!
    -------------------

    I'm uploading two more pictures:
    One is showing that me and the real one became friends on the 4th.
    And the one from the 3rd, which for some reason doesn't even have the event happening.

    P.S. It's zoomed in so that the bubble thing doesn't cover up my name.
