Accepted Report: 76561198051161125 - ([TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items)

Scam Report

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

Accused profile: 76561198051161125

Victim profile: 76561198144434246

What happened? Description:

This profile added me randomly and asked me to withdraw their items, which immediately got me suspicious. They advertised this site valleyitems.com, which I found to be a scamming site that persuades you to deposit items with the bait of dirt-cheap unusuals and then blocks you. I fooled around a bit so they eventually got the point and stopped.​

"I recently got a dm form someone that i didnt know. he said that he was having problems on a tf2 gamble site and asked me to withdraw a item for him. he sent me funds on the site he sent me and told me to withdraw the item. i was then given a message that said to deposit $25 of items. i asked the "support maneger" on the site if i would get my items back and he said i would. i then put in a small item just to test it and asked for it back after. he gave it back. i then did what i shouldnt have done. i put in OVER $25 of otems in (including my vintage spec lugermorph and bills hat). once i had completed the trade. it blocked me from the site."
