    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198131848631

    Victim profile: 76561198070378360

    What happened? Description:
    Randomly added me and offered to trade me for my unusual. His inventory was privated, but his profile had an inventory link to someone with the same name and profile picture. He said he wanted to "verify" the items through a third party. After I pointed these things out he seemingly blocked me (and removed everything on his account)

    Account he was impersonating's info:

    | steamname: Ace
    | steam3ID: [U:1:87700768]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:43850384
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198047966496
    | customURL: http://steamcommunity.com/id/7656119804796643
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198047966496​

    Provide Evidence:
    Screenshots 1 and 2 are of our conversation together, with him showing interest in my unusual and giving me offers (from the person he was impersonating's inventory). It was after these two screenshots that I tried to close the chat window to get the timestamps to show up, and I didn't know closing the chat window would completely clear the chat. So my apologies, but everything after that message was me confronting him with him not saying anything in reply. Screenshot three is of the scammer's profile, and Screenshot four is of the person he was impersonating's profile. Notice the differing urls. Screenshot 5 shows how the scammer's profile removed everything that was on it, including the description and profile picture. If any more proof is required please say so.​

    ...Okay I just realized Screenshot 5 means he was community banned. Oops.

    Adding a tag but yes a community ban is something that won't get reverted so the tag is almost pointless
