    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198040615995 ()

    Victim profile: 76561198045271106

    What happened? Description:
    Where do I begin?
    So today this guy added me and almost scammed half of my inventory.
    It's started with the guy saying he wants to buy 4 of my unusuals and we agreed in a price, then he said I have to give them to my friend (this friend was my brother) to prove that they are not scammed (??)
    He invited us into a chat room, asked my brother that he is my friend etc. Then he closed the chat room, I gave my 4 unusuals to my friend and he said he'll record it and I have to wait. I got bored so I went over my brother's room and what I see? He is in a chat room again with my impersonator (They used the chat room so they don't have to add my brother and easily hide the impersonation (the name and the profile pic was the same)) and they're in trade all my unusuals ready to the "give back" and only one click on the "make trade" is missing. Well I almost got a heart attack but luckily I stepped in in the last minute and stop the trade.
    The moral of the story is that you may prepared to avoid a scam but your friend is not.
