    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Misrepresenting virtual items
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198296764550

    Victim profile: 76561198150761253

    What happened? Description:
    The accused, or "Mindacos" is impersonating a trader known as Mindacos. He added me to trade for my unusual and I asked him to unprivatize his backpack. He then said that he was afraid that scammers and hackers would steal his backpack if it was public. He kept on linking me to someone else's inventory which bugged me so I ignored it. If he was not intending on scamming me he would have let me maneuver to his backpack/inventory and not link someone else with the exact same name.​

    Thanks - do keep in mind that this user is already banned/tagged..there isn't any more we can do to this user. Should you come across a user like this again(check users out BEFORE you accept friend request) it is best to just report them to Valve, delete and move on.

    In fact user is already listed tags multiple times therefore this and all future reports will be Archived - Be sure to report the user to Valve as you should have done to start with as there is again nothing more we can do to them here.
    In order to do that, you have to:
    1. Visit the accuseds profile
    2. Click MORE drop-down located at the top right of the page
    3. Choose REPORT VIOLATION
    4. Select the violation, then describe it and provide the evidence
    5. Click SUBMIT REPORT

    Click here to view an animated gif that shows how to report a violation.
