    Description:
    I bumped my unusual hat trade on TF2outpost and someone added me. I accepted the friend request. The scammer accepted my $40 offer and told me about a middle-man. I looked at the SteamREP page and loaded the Steam Profile page. When the MM joined chat I didn't look closely at the associated profile page. When money was supposedly sent to the MM I should have realized something was wrong. I traded the hat the the MM and they dissappeared. I saved the chat log transcript but I didn't realize a chat window screenshot was needed. I have opened a ticket with Steam support to notify them of the scammer accounts.

    The item was a Doctor's Sack with Nuts n' Bolts custom named "Nut-Sack":

    I had a little chat with the new hat owner and looked at their network of untrusted friends... Here is a chat screenshot:

    The trade posts this "off3r" person put on TF2TP looks like they had my hat right away and then stripped off the custom name tag:
