    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198086811906

    Victim profile: 76561198044520304

    What happened? Description:
    He posted on my trade on CSGOlounge.com that he wanted to trade and he proposed a decent offer so I said sure and added him for discussion only to find out he is another scammer. I've seen this method many times and his execution of the impersonation method has to be the saddest I've seen. So after I added him and proposed to trade he says, "ahh sorry but could you give to others, I really want to be sure that you are not scammers after I make a deal with you." Obviously he was trying to get me to send him a link to a trusted friend's profile which he would proceed to impersonate in a chat room where he invited the "friend." I messaged my friend prior to this trade and he didn't respond so I assume he was away. After my "friend" joined I clicked on the profile and found that it was an impersonator. Check the evidence to see for yourself which was the real one and which was the impersonator. And soon he became impatient. I pressed the scammer a bit to see what they would do but that's pretty much it.

    Also if you pay attention to the profiles and look at the friends list you can definitely see that the real profile has a lot more mutual friends than the impersonator. I didn't lose anything because the trade never happened but I want to report him so that others will stay away from this scammer.​

    Provide Evidence:
    If you see the two profiles with the name "[SHB] Yolo Swaggins" the 2 details from the profiles set them clearly apart.

    1. The groups we have in common.
    2. The number of mutual friends.

    Also if you look at his profile, maybe even check if you're reading this now, but he hasn't even deleted previous comments from other people he's tried to scam.​
