What happened? Description:

Okay, so just a reminder:

I didn't get scammed of any items, however this is about someone trying to get me to advertise a fake gambling site to scam people's items off of them. I didn't know what category to put this in, so I went with the fake gambling site option. I'm sorry if this falls into another category but please hear this report out.


Essentially what happened, I got a random add from this guy wanting me to "advertise" this gambling site of his. I threw a few questions at him about it, he starts to go on about nonsense like "paid 100$ per week in tf2 items" and what not.

I think what he was trying to do here was make me his puppet to lure people into this fake gambling site to steal items from people willing to gamble.

The screenshots explain everything. I told him about how he doesn't even own tf2 and right after that he removed me, and made his inventory private that had a few steam trading cards in it, and no tf2 items whatsoever (sadly I wasn't able to get a shot of his inventory before he made it private, was only able to get no3 shown in screenshots of game history)

Then i decided to sign into the fake site, knowing that the steam verification isn't fake in order to be appealing and look truthful to people, the site itself isn't.

The chat is fake, the items won are fake, it doesn't even show counters, the profiles are fake, and when you "deposit" items I was expecting for it to redirect me to a bot that would try to get those specific items from me, but it lazily redirects to a blank trade offer with the bot.

And the worst part is that people have fell for this, the bot's inventory has 2 unusuals in it, 3 stranges, and a key.

I obviously know that steamrep can't do anything about this, and that valve themselves would have to take action on it, but i'd just like to give a warning about this guy who seems to be the owner of this fake site, and not to consider trusting him. I hope this is warned about soon. Also I hope I've reiterated this enough: do NOT trade away your items on this site, and don't even consider going on it. It's a fake site that's illegal in the first place for being a gambling site, and you shouldn't even risk your money for more than you gave away, since it can turn out to be rigged, or in this case, fake.

I hope everyone has a nice rest of the day, I certainly can say after this I'm feeling uneasy after seeing this.​
