    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198160289204

    Victim profile: 76561197960272378

    What happened? Description:
    I put a trade on csgo lounge for my huntsman knife. A user adds me and asks me what I want, so he gave me a link to his "vault" account which has loads of expensive items and so fourth. He would give me a karambit which was worth 40$+ more than my knife. I said lets trade and then he asks if its a bugged knife where it disappears after a trade (scam). After that he says hes getting a steamrep middleman which I will link to in another report. I checked his profile and he wasn't but pretended to be one. I played around with him for a while as they tried to scam me in a group chat. They both unfriended me and block me.
    They already have reports on their accounts but I wanted to get them reported again so they can't do this kind of stuff. His vault has loads of skins which I assume was from scamming.

    NOTE THIS IS THE MIDDLEMAN THAT HELPED THE MAIN SCAMMER​
