    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Misrepresenting virtual items
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    What happened? Description:
    Another 'friend' of mine told me about the accused sharking an unexperienced trader out of a very rare 1 of 1 in existance sunbeams bill shine, the accused offered around 190 keys for it.

    I confronted the accused about the events and he had alot to say, one of the main excuses he came up with to cover himself was that he was giving the victim more money once he sells the hat, now to me that seems quite fishy, especially since the accused is asking for more than 700+ keys on the hat and he initially bought for 190 keys off of the unboxer, who at the time most likely didn't know the likely price of the hat especially since the bill shine's are rare and the fact the sunbeams one specifically is unpriced surpisingly like most of the other bill shine's in existance.

    The accused has been seen on trade server such as firepowered and vatican offering this bill shine for high tier hats, the accused even told me himself he'd be surprised if he got offered 300 for the hat. I feel that this is another excuse he has made to cover himself yet again.

    My accusation is that he clearly sharked the victim out of this unusual. The fact that the accused is an experienced trader clearly seen taking advantage of the victim. And the accused is one of the administrators of the Vatican trading server also, so you would also think that he is experienced.​

    Comparisson's of the trade. If you look at the history of the field practice you will find the victim's backpack.tf link. The bill shine also has a two person history being bought off of the victim.

    In this chat log, this is myself and the accused having a discussion so to speak about the events that occured. I was telling the accused of how I got the information.

    He was trying to make excuse on top of excuses, so I had to come up with plausible arguements to use against his comments. He told me how the 1 of 1 pomarde prince is priced at 285, that is also 1 of 1 in existance and he's trying to base that price off of 1 trade in the last 3 years.

    He has been seen offering on 800 key unusuals. On the firepowered servers. An example of this is when I believe I saw him offer it on a burning flames tipped lid, I couldn't get a screenshot because of how fast the chat was moving.

    What the accused is asking for on the hat: https://gyazo.com/b63c32e365e2f56788fd2a63f9b368d8

    Triangulated: Why didn't you pay him the price you're asking for at the time of the purchase?
    Ashannabuda: What do yo umean
    Triangulated: What do I mean
    Triangulated: Oh hoho
    Ashannabuda: That actually makes no sense
    Triangulated: First: You're asking for 700+ and are offering on high tier unusuals, which tells me that you knew the hats potential value on the day you purchased it.
    Triangulated: Especially since you were obviously referencing off of the values the lower effects had recieved.
    Ashannabuda: Okay
    Ashannabuda: I explainted this all to you
    Triangulated: Second: You pay what you thought was good enough to profit from in trash unusuals, to the kid who had no clue about the price.
    Triangulated: Especially since he was the unboxer.
    Ashannabuda: You're calling me a shark, huh?
    Ashannabuda: And who told you this was one of the biggest sharks
    Ashannabuda: Now, there is no price on the aht
    Ashannabuda: A similar hat, some say is better
    Triangulated: Third: You're telling me your going to give him the rest after you sell the hat, which is just f✿✿✿✿✿✿ ✿✿✿✿✿✿ed because I looked at the price of your inventory on the day of purchase and you had more than enough to pay him 500+

    Ashannabuda: He will get a certein ammount of it
    Ashannabuda: that is the long story short

    Triangulated: Once one.
    Triangulated: Once more*
    Ashannabuda: ........
    Ashannabuda: for waht
    Triangulated: You told me
    Triangulated: That you price your f✿✿✿✿✿✿ bill shine
    Triangulated: at 300 max
    Ashannabuda: Yes
    Triangulated: Why are you offering it on 800+ key hats.
    Ashannabuda: But I like it
    Ashannabuda: So i dont mind keepingit
    Ashannabuda: so
    Ashannabuda: If someone likes it more than me
    Ashannabuda: They'll pay my price
    Ashannabuda: Im throwing offers

    Don't accept 3rd party reports - don't accept sharking reports.
    Evidence is also too cropped to review.
