    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198082984689

    Victim profile: 76561197983311223

    What happened? Description:
    The accused replied to my thread on CSGO Lounge with a link to his own offer.
    His offer showed a "M4A4 | Radiation Hazard (Factory New)" on the left-hand side.
    It seems to be really rare and is currently 282€ on the market with only 2 listings existing: http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/730/M4A4 | Radiation Hazard (Factory New)

    You can put items into your offer that you do not actually own. It seems like he did that here, since he only has a "Minimal Wear" version of this skin in his inventory. It is regularly sold on the market for less than 20€. There are 40-50 listings: https://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/730/M4A4 | Radiation Hazard (Minimal Wear)

    He tried hiding himself by making his profile link unclickable with an empty name, but you can still get his profile ID from the trade offer link he conveniently put in.

    He does not seem to be open to discussion. His trade thread says

    Provide Evidence:
    Screenshots of his offer, inventory, both the real and the misrepresented item on the market, etc.​

    Yeah unfortunately I fell for it. CONFIRMED SCAMMER BEWARE. As soon as trade is done he blocks you and moves the item off the account.

    It looks like he is still doing this. The trade thread on CSGOLounge is still up and he has what looks like a new version of that cheap skin now. (No more name tag and it has stickers.)

    His thread on Lounge is closed now actually, but his messages count went up from 1200 yesterday to almost 2000 right now. WTF.

    Please submit your own thread. That's much more effective in getting someone banned than just leaving a "me, too" with no evidence.
    His messages is counter is up to 2597 already and went up to 2603 while I wrote this...
    This guy is doing some serious spam to get victims. :-(
