    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198178993601

    Victim profile: 76561198072003760

    What happened? Description:
    I was looking to buy an Unusual hat from Backpack.tf and he was the best one to buy from so I added him to negotiate the price. We then start talking about the price and then asks if I am selling one of my unusuals. I say no then tell him I will buy the hat for 27 keys and he says yes to the offer, then says he needs to check that the items are "clean" so I say okay and then he says a steam admin can help with this so he sends me the link to the profile. After looking over the profile, I instantly know he is trying to scam, but when i look in his backpack he has thousands of dollars worth of skins. I still know its a scam and then told him to stop trying to scam, then he blocks me.​

    Provide Evidence:
    All the Evidence is in the pictures.​

    Thanks - issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the popup of the profile. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's Full Screen and make sure steam client URL is enabled, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Review this screenshot guide to help you:
