    Accused profile: 76561198355652831

    Victim profile: 76561197983300326

    What happened? Description:
    -Added me to discuss potential sale and price history of my unusual
    -Invited me to discord to screenshare to aid process
    -Bade me put item up for sale on Marketplace.tf to check price history (items for sale on Marketplace.tf go to their bots and are held in escrow).
    -Did a practice run with a low-value item first
    -Upon initiating trade to Marketplace.tf bot, he used a fake impersonator (https://steamcommunity.com/id/marketplacetflegitbot1212) to create a simultaneous trade, manipulating me into accepting his as opposed to the legitimate trade​

    Provide Evidence:
    Bot 11 is a legit bot which I performed the "test run" run with, both 57 is the fake bot.

    Sorry no evidence here of any scam by this steam user- anything thru discord is unacceptable.. you are reporting a STEAM USER...not a discord user.
    NEVER discuss steam trading outside of steam chat. Also ALL screenshots must be FULL screen even including task bar!
    Also NEVER give us Custom URL's they can change at any time - like the one you gave for a bot as it doesn't work anymore.
    Rejecting report on all of the above.
