    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198055066246

    Victim profile: 76561198171082595

    What happened? Description:
    For the 4th time this month, yet another scammer suddenly adds me. I checked his SteamRep (as i do before accepting any random invite) and it turned out that this profile's ALREADY BANNED. I knew it would get interesting afterwards when I began speaking to him.

    So he asks me where my unusual Blizzardy Storm Hard Counter came from like 2 times, and said that an "Official Steam Administrator" could check our items before we traded (such a painfully obvious scam, jesus). He gave me a profile that goes by the name of "Shubbler" (who didn't have any special Rep according to a quick SteamRep search of this fake admin profile, so this guy MUST be banned to warn any potential scam victims about his evil intentions to defraud)

    After I added Shubbler and started speaking to him for about 4 mins., he went on to transform the chat into a group chat with the LegoTonix! impersonator, and claimed that an "Item Checker Program Database" bot would send us a trade offer, so I acted like I would accept it. (Fake bot'
    s IDs will be provided as Evidence, too.)

    I then went on to offer him a common Heavy Trading Card, along with a nice message telling him to get lost. He then immediately disconnected as a result along with his acomplice (LegoTonix! impersonator)​

    @Demo's Left Eye You've made enough reports here to know that you should be checking users out before you add them or accept them.. this user is already banned/tagged - there is nothing more we can do. If you see they are already tagged just walk away..delete, ignore - report to Valve.
    If you are already doing this and know this then we want you to avoid situations like this not invite them and continue on.
    Our goal here is to promote safe trading and avoiding these users is doing just that.
    I'm adding this last note to this user - no more reports will be reviewed for them and will be archived.
    Report to Valve as you should have done already.
