    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulant behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198073917236

    Victim profile: 76561198067227091

    What happened? Description:
    He agreed to trade me his "Murder of Crows" set after I gifted him my "The Witch Hunter" bundle, well you know what happens next, he then immediately disconnects and block our communication after I gifted him mine. I trusted him because his steam profile was filled with tons of positive commendations so I can only assume that his "reputation" is forged.

    Looking back at his dota2lounge offers, he only accepts giftable set while ignoring legitimate trade that requires both parties to exchange items at the same time, he always uses the same reason which is the number of commendations to get the opponent to gift him the items first.

    Unfortunately I am unable to take 100% of the evidence as gifted in-game item wont show up on Inventory History. The only way I can think of to verify the transaction is by adding him and look into his inventory for said bundle with a dedication message "thanks". Also, I only found out about steam rep after the scam so I am not able to follow the guideline regarding evidence so time stamps will not be present in the the chat log and it is cropped. My apologies

    More and more victims are falling into his poisonous claws as we speak so I pledge for him to be punished as severely as digitally possible and as fast as humanly capable. Sorry for any inconvenience caused and I wish for an update over his ill-fate soon.

    Thank you for reading,
    a-very-angry-scam-victim.​

    Provide Evidence:
    • First screenshot is our entire conversational exchange regarding the trade, my apologies for not following the guideline as it is cropped and timestamps are not present, I am unable to fix it as he had already removed me from his friends list and blocked me. Once again sorry.

    • Second screenshot is one of his many offers, he uses his fake commendations to persuade his victims into gifting him the item first

    • Third screenshot is another one of his offers, as you can see Cyrax immediately jumps at the chance when people offer him giftable-only sets while ignoring legitimate trades.

    • Fourth screenshot shows all his offer, he has been offering the same thing for days now, if he is indeed a fair trader, don't you think he'd be finished trading his Pudge set by now? Considering all the offers he got.

    Update #1: I have managed to get a hold of one of his friends, I have requested her to take a screenshot for me which shows the Anti-Mage bundle I sent to him.
