    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Gambling] Fake gambling website
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198179546075

    Victim profile: 76561197997432396

    What happened? Description:
    I was added by this person: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198179546075/
    Offering to pay some tf2 items for me to promote his site (TF2Raven . com). I was immedietely suspicious, as this is a rarity to have a representative adding random people for exposure.

    I looked at the site, asked a few questions, i left the site open as i talked to him, and i noticed how fake it all was. The pot is almost on a timer for when things are added to it. The Chat deviates between 101-109 members, i never saw it go above or below. Every comment posted within the chat is copy pasted by another chat member a short time after.

    When i mentioned this, the representative immedietely stated that part of the chat are bots. What?

    i asked a few questions about the site, but the representative turned violent, throwing insults trying to discredit me. Pretty obvious bait imo. I took it to try and glean more information.​

    @Indigo ☆ Its essential you always get a FULL screen of the users profile WHILE friends to also add for evidence -that helps verify identity. Luckly I was able to verify this without it another way but its rare we can do that.
    I'll review this again shortly.
