    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198127332922

    Victim profile: 76561198214243764

    What happened? Description:
    I was added by the accused and he asked if I wanted to trade. When we agreed on the price of my wrench he asked if we could undergo an item check. He told me he had found a "steam official" who could do this for us. He asked me to add https://steamcommunity.com/id/Mazzers/ This guy posed as a "steam official" and told me to send my item to https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198873160881 for what he called item checking. Knowing this was a scam I proceeded to troll them. As soon as it was obvious that I was aware that they were scammers they left the chat and unfriended me.

    Here is the SteamRep profile block for the guy posing as a steam official:
    | steamname: Mazz

    Here is the SteamRep profile block for the profile that I was directed to send my item to for "checking"

    @GreasyWombat I need the FAKE admin that the user gave you in the chat...not the real one they were impersonating.
    Who was that user? I can't verify anything either way on that user because you still have images embedded in steam chat- disable that now so it shows URL's not images.

    Also according to the users profile you reported here they haven't been online in over 228 days - you must have talked to someone else.. basically reported the wrong user - so who was that?
    you have 24hours to follow up considering the facts above.

    Unfortunately, I no longer have access to that chat so I can't send a screenshot of the fake admin's URL. The only evidence I have is that I went to the fake admin's profile after the scam attempt using the link provided by Team Rocket and below is attached the screenshot of the profile that I blocked. Unfortunately, I know this is not enough evidence.

    As for reporting the wrong profile for Team Rocket, I made the mistake of copying and pasting only id numbers of https://steamcommunity.com/id/76561198127332922- into the search bar of SteamRep which brought me to the real Team Rocket's page. When I copy and paste the whole link it comes up with the correct profile. I am very sorry for these errors.

    Rejecting due to wrong user reported.
    User you should have reported is tagged already multiple times and nothing more we can do to them
