    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198003391264

    Victim profile: 76561198160120451

    What happened? Description:
    [This is a fake trading site scam report for both the user and the site ]


    Quick and easy. User added me into saying that if I need any form of an item (tf2,dota2 etc). Use this site here he said, he posted the link to it from there. Obviously, that's a red flag but I proceeded with it. I checked the site and what I saw was a trading site that trades 1 item for another. I needed to sign in but the login URL didn't have the [Valve Corp US] link and instead said (Secure) so I wasn't comfortable with singing in, mainly because this was a similar scam that happened with opskins. you go to the fake opskins site, sign in and the login URL says (not secure) Which is a dead giveaway. Also fake gambling sites are starting to have the (secure) tag but it really isn't. Surprised they have that in the first place. But yea wanted to get into this and if he really is a fraud.​
