    What happened? Description:
    Ardbisimo friended me about 2 months ago which was shortly after I had received a FN Doppler Butterfly knife from a Breakout case. He sent me a message on March 7th asking if I wanted to sell the knife. At first, I dismissed the thought but after he and I chatted some more I agreed. You will notice in the chat text that the first part of the conversation is two way in chat. Then, after he starts a live stream in Twitch (to show me how the trade would work and his Facebook group "Global Trading" can verify his reputation) that the chat becomes one way - me chatting in Steam and him talking in Twitch.

    I see now that there are 3 other cases reported against this person in Steamrep. All of them are very similar or identical to my case. I trusted this person because he has a Steam level of 210 and he had the support of a Facebook group (of 8000+ members). Knowing what I know now, this is a very elaborate scamming scheme and he got me for a $900.00 knife.

    It is evident now that his Steam level was achieved one way - scamming. I hope my evidence is complete and gets this person banned.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Here is where Ardbisimo started the chat with me.​

    Sorry but you have absolutely zero evidence of any scam here.
    No chat/agreement noted thru steam chat as required with the image you provided there is nothing there.
    You can't assume someone did anything wrong by getting a high steam level either.
    Please do not submit reports here without proper evidence.
