    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198041103257

    Victim profile: 76561197983544408

    What happened? Description:
    I am the co-owner of the tradebot (the victim).
    Today we received three tradeoffers with market manipulated items from the accused. Since the tradebot works with steam api, it automatically accepted the offers as the prices met the requirements, the 4th offer (sent from another account after blacklisting the accused) was quickly manually declined, but it was late by the time we realized the fraud.

    The item he traded: P250 | Bone Mask (Battle-Scarred), valued around 5$, but was market manipulated, and sold around 50$ in the last couple of weeks.

    The bot has been running since February and has never encountered such frauds, scams, meaning that it can't be blamed, but rather the market manipulation, which is forbidden and bannable by steam. We can't say he was just lucky to trade one for a better price, because he traded 3 already, and 2 resting in his friend's inventory.

    The first three pictures show the trades as accepted, the 4th offer as declined. There is no chat log, since it is a tradebot.​

    SR doesn't handle disputes about values/pricing and there is not enough evidence of any thing to show bad intent to scam.
