Scam Report

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

Accused profile: 76561198146272378

Victim profile: 76561198056241711

What happened? Description:

The accused randomly added me, asking if I'm available for trade, replying yes and asking what Item(s) they are interested in, wanting to know if I'm trading my unusual (Bubbling Virtual Reality Headset) for pure keys. I offer for 18 Keys, they ask for my trade url, which I do give. After confirming the agreed offer they asked if I know about OPSkins, they wanted to know if I know how to place it in a sale queue, replying no, they offer to guide me, when I placed the item on the sale queue and providing a screenshot as proof of the action via Imgur (Also provided in Files) After confirming the screenshot, they wanted me to confirm the Trade offer from the OPSkins Bot for Queue confirmation. (Which I Declined) Which led to me linking to his backpack.tf profile which had had multiple negative ratings for OPSkins Scam attempt and was suspended for being a scammer alt, they unfriended after exposing them for a OPSkins Bot Scam attempt.
I did further research which lead me to their rep.tf which showed that he was banned from TF2 Outpost for being a Alt of Banned user, which lead to a "Item(s) Data Base Program" Steam Profile
