    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Misrepresenting virtual items
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198293264714

    Victim profile: 76561198199186378

    What happened? Description:
    First off - I don't make CSGO skins so this COULD be legit but I don't think it is.

    They added me randomly and started speaking to me about my CSGO rank and then asked me if I wanted to help then with their CSGO skin design and in return, they would give me a skin... in this case a karambit. The first part of the chat got cut off which is why it starts with "ooo a karambit..." but nothing happens before that.

    They were trying to get me to send my desert eagle kumicho dragon to them so that they could "add it into their skin design", they needed it so that they could use their "enhancer" to get the texture from it.

    From doing my own 3D models at college you need the framework and then the texture sheet and you then put one on top of the other (In short). When I was googling how to make a skin for CSGO it uses the same methods which is why I think this is a scam.

    I did not send them my skin as I don't send anything without getting something in return, so this is an attempt but should still be reported. Now reading the rules of the report, I needed to put his profile on ALL screenshots but the chat window is closed :/ Hopefully it's fine with it only being in only 5 if not if you know how I can open the chat window back up I will submit more screenshots :)​

    Provide Evidence:
    Hopefully, they are attached...​

    Who was the steam admin they told you to add or talk to? @Keldy21

    Also I need to verify identity to the accused - you didn't get a full screen of the users profile WHILE friends which would have helped that.
    Follow next set of instructions:
    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, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Please review this screenshot guide should you need assistance:

    Hello, sorry I was not friends with them for the screenshots. I have just uploaded some more like you have asked (Hopefully they are correct).

    They never said about which admin I should add, they just said it as a general term, I did not follow up on it which admin as you can see in the screenshots.
