    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Misrepresenting virtual items
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198069874669

    Victim profile: 76561198068418784

    What happened? Description:
    "Goat" saw my post on reddit /r/GameTrade and added me to steam. Wrote on my wall that he saw my reddit post and added me. Inquired about The Culling Steam Key that I have, for trade for 6 CSGO Keys. His inventory was keyless so I was skeptical even though he claimed he would be having his friend send him keys. I took screenshots of it all happening. I wouldn't agree to going first, and ended the negotiations. When I got home from dinner, a fellow trusted redditor messaged me seeing that we were friends and asked if I had dealt with "Goat" and explained how he tried to scam him and another redditor for various keys/money/games.

    He has been banned from the three subreddits commonly used. /r/SteamGameSwap /r/SteamGameExchange and /r/GameTrade

    Here is what I sent to the moderators of those respective subs.
    "I was told by audible smile to send you a message informing you about my transaction with "goat" also known as https://www.reddit.com/user/TheFakeGoat
    http://imgur.com/a/XPnLD (Our convo once he "fixed" steam)
    http://imgur.com/2hGikGK (My thread in /r/GameTrade)
    http://imgur.com/Ll9rdf1 (My original odd convo with him)

    I've also got threats that he's going to leave us bad rep saying we are the scammers. I screenshotted it all, but I'll upload it if it's needed. http://imgur.com/Or0zL86

    Obviously something wasn't right. I wasn't going to go the distance to see if my instinct was right, but it appears as if he's pulled one over on two other redditors.

    I'll contact the Reddit admins to confirm this incident. And even if no trade was actually completed, there is obvious proof that this guy was trying to scam others.

    There is nothing here that suggests the user would have scammed you. I see you both arguing over who was going first and then that was it. Then you both argued after the fact. What is said on Reddit is beside the point we are only going to look at the steam connections and chat.
    This report is invalid as there was no attempt of a scam taking place here.
