Scam Report

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

Accused profile: 76561198796481379

Victim profile: 76561198167336382

What happened? Description:

3 separate reports in one here.

So this person comes up to me offering on my unusual. Doesn't seem suspicious until he links his "inventory." I checked the account and it turns out he is impersonating this account: (https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198076588232)

He then asks me: where did you get the unusual? I tell him I got it off Backpack.tf for a good price. He then asks to verify if the item is duped. He tells me to add a "steam admin" who then tells me to create a group chat.

I add him and he tells us to send our unusual to a "database" where some "pending offer" thing or something will happen.

Just a few reminder traders: Your Item(s) will only be on a pending offer (notification) As a pending offer only just to gather enough logs and data tor it to be verified. It will never be accepted as or inventory is systematically locked by valve/steam for you traders to have the fairness/comfort of this method. Is it clear Traders?

[12:57]
[FP] Dr. McKay:
Don't forget to confirm your sent pending offer(s) via Mobile and I wont be including any offers which are not involved in the trade. It would take 2-6 minutes for your item(s) to be verified but may take 15 days if you have it on email.

[12:58]
ttlpwnage2321:
almost done
waiting for mobile confirmation sir

[12:58]
[FP] Dr. McKay:
Just keep me updated if both of you are done sending the offer.!

[12:58]
Sanaralerx:
So what exactly does this database confirm?
just curious
i know we are checking if items are duped
but is there any other service this is for>

[12:59]
[FP] Dr. McKay:
You need to send both of your items offer so that i can start to check and validate!
Dont worry Note: Your offers can't be accepted as its inventory is systematically locked by Valve, so your item(s) are never taken and will stay on your inventory at all times.
