Report Type: [Item Fraud] Misrepresenting virtual items

Victim profile: 76561198112971699

What happened? Description:

I simply got a Trade Offer for my Unusual hat. It was a high valued item. That of course would've been, if the item would've been Craftable instead of Uncraftable. Because of the high reputation of this person, I must report it because it's sickening that somebody like them would do such thing. I don't know the person, he's a random trader. See more information in "Provide Evidence" section.​

Provide Evidence:

I will try my best to explain what happened with the pictures below.

^ This is the trade he offered me. I hovered my mouse above the accused's profile, to confirm that it is actually this person:

^ I am sickened that someone with such high value of inventory would offer a uncraftable item, attempting to trick me via Trade Offers into selling a high value item to something worth much much less.

This here is the link he provided with the Trade Offer:
https://backpack.tf/classifieds?item=Flip-Flops&quality=6&tradable=1&australium=-1
It essentially takes you to the Classifieds of said item, but it isn't saying whether it takes you to the Craftable version or Un-Craftable version of said item. It actually takes you to both versions, which would confuse somebody and push somebody into accepting the trade offer if they didn't check if the Item was Craftable or Not. Below is a picture, if you didn't click on the link, might as well check it here;

A note to reviewers;
- NO items were traded.
- NO further information was provided.
- There is NO chat between the victim and accused.

As it might've been a simple offer for an Unusual hat, it's quite "misleading" and I am failing to believe that this individual with such a high valued inventory would simply send the wrong item in the trade, even after putting a link in the Offer that would mislead the victim, making them into think that they're getting tons of profit with that trade, that of course if they didn't check whether the item is Craftable or not.

I am reporting this individual for "Misrepresenting virtual items", because as a high-valued inventory owner, they should know better instead of trying to "scam"/"mislead" smaller traders such as myself. Here is the accused's inventory, in case anybody is interested.

Either what I said is true, or I am overreacting. I am sorry if this was a huge waste of your time.​

I believe I explained everything above, although I'm sorry that I didn't put full resolution pictures. I didn't really realise I had to do that. This was also my first time posting something like this.
At this point in time, I am in school and the trade offer has been automatically cancelled by the system because the item is no longer available in the trader's inventory. But here is a picture from my phone of the trade offer. I also believe that I sent the link he sent with the offer. Please check it above, thoroughly.

Here are extra pictures of the accused's profile. v

^ Here is the price of the accused's UnCraftable item.

^ Up here is where the link he sent leads to. Check it yourself if you can make it out from the previous pictures.

To answer your question, I believe my reasoning for the person being a scammer is because of that trade offer and that link he sent with it. I explained this above but I'll explain it again. The link takes you to the classifieds of said item that he was offering but it does not specify in the URL whether the item is Craftable or not, therefore the Craftable option appears at the Buy Orders the highest because the Craftable version of the item is more valuable. If it was somebody with a private profile that did this, I would've declined the trade and moved on with my day. The reason I haven't, is because of this person's valuable inventory. Small traders like myself look up to these bigger traders. It is sickening that somebody like them would attempt to trick a smaller trader. Again, I said all this above and I apologise for the cropped photos. I hope photos on phone are acceptable.

Update: I didn't know that I will arrive home from school this early, so I have made new pictures on my personal computer. They are not cropped.
