Accepted Report: 76561198316172546 - ([TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items)

Scam Report

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

Accused profile: 76561198316172546

Victim profile: 76561198026767893

What happened? Description:

I had just bumped one of my unusual trade offers on TF2 Outpost, when this guy instantaneously adds me. Suspicious, I check his profile and his inventory, and then his steamrep. I could see right away he was a scammer, however I decided to play ball, and waste his time. He wanted to do the item verification scam, insisting on it even when I proved him wrong with facts. Eventually we are put in a group chat with one of his "admin" buddies who was supposed to serve as a middle man. Time passes some more and shenanigans ensue. They tell me to send an offer of my unusual, but instead of doing that I send a Rainy Day cosmetic case, and they start counting down until I get banned for messing around. I ask them to suck my nuts and they immediately leave, and remove me. They are doing the item verification scam. I know this because one, they were bringing fake administrators for the trade to serve as 'middlemen', two, all of my unusuals are 100% clean, and three the first person that added me is reported as a fraud on his steamrep page.​

I was going to report the fake admin, however the person I was first in contact with was already banned. I figured the fake administrator should also be banned because he is an associate. Regardless, I've uploaded screenshots of both their steamrep profiles and added their info down below.

(Also, I noticed just now you banned him. In this case the report can be closed as I wanted to file a report on him but not only am I not supposed to that, but he's marked now anyways.)
