    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198336575749

    Victim profile: 76561198213910941

    What happened? Description:
    A guy added me to trade, he said he was interested in my unusual (hellish inferno meet the medic taunt) (re-named "A Fallen Angel," if you care). I replied that it cost 41 keys, but for some reason, he offered 50 keys pure on it. I thought it would be too good to be true, and it turns out I was right. So, I plugged in his account info into steam rep, and I was surprised to not see any red. But not soon after, he tried to play the ever so classic op skins bot scam. So I started taking screenshots, planning on reporting him later. He actually tried to do it on the 20th (date can be screen in the bottom corner of my screenshots mountain daylight time), but the item servers were unfortunately down, so I said that we would try again later. The next day (shown in the corner as the 21st and 22nd in the corner because I stay up too late) He tried to complete the scam. Fortunately, I didn't fall for the scam, and I think I gathered enough evidence against him. I took two separate shots of the entire chat, (one from the computer screenshots, and another from my phone) in case if I missed anything in either of them.​

    Provide Evidence:
    43-45: the initial pleasantries and talking about the item (unusual meet the medic taunt)​

    hey, I need to include more screenshots in this, I accidentally clicked submit too early. I can just put them here along with the notes (so sorry about that)

    46-54: me initially faking to agree to the trade, then calling it quits later because the servers were down
    60-61: getting the scammer's info from steam rep

    (more to be said later)

    the rest of the screenshots are me kind of trolling the scammer (I know, I know) but the important one is 104, where I get the fake op skins bot url in the shot (I don't think that will fit in this one, but it will make it in the next one)

    ok, here is the last of them (101-104). again, 104 shows the fake op skins bot. Sorry again for making you guys read through these :/

    I also have another entire copy of the same chat from my phone, so just let me know if you would like to see that one as well (it will just take me a while to upload them)

    also, this is my first report, so let me know what I should change to make it easier for you guys in the future :)

    What bot? You showed a screenshot of a bots offer but not once gave any info on that bot account?
    I need the FULL Sr profile block to that account @sixes | trade.tf
