    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198813599122

    Victim profile: 76561198083299791

    What happened? Description:
    I was looking to sell my unusual rubber glove for 18 keys, and someone who added me was looking to trade for it. He wanted to get a middleman for the trade just to make sure that he didn’t get scammed, and I didn’t really mind. The middleman, CAaronD, wanted me to verify the items in the trade, and he told me to send him the items involved. I was stupid and became convinced by his steam level and the +reps on his profile, so I gave him my unusual and keys for him to make sure were “clean” for trading. After I traded him the items, he wanted me to buy 200 bucks worth of steam wallet codes and send to him for identity verification. I asked him why this was required and he said it’s for safety reasons since’s he claimed to be part of Steam Support. Realizing I just got scammed, I asked him for my items back and he then made a half-assed attempt to scam me again by sending me to another trading website. When I called him out, he unfriended me.​

    @ichonaged Ok so your reporting a fake middleman but you didn't report the user you were FIRST incontact with? If so why?
    That is who you should report not a 3rd party pulled into the mix.

    You completely abandoned this report - no choice but to archive as you didn't provide hardly anything against this user.
