    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198831726704

    Victim profile: 76561198087017020

    What happened? Description:
    I added the real https://steamcommunity.com/id/s0ez/ and wrote a comment on their profile. After adding this user, another user named soez added me and I sent them a picture of what skin I was interested in. They claimed this was their discussion account.

    After discussing with this player (Figures 1, 2, 3) about buying the gloves for skins and PayPal, they offered me a really low price for the gloves ($430 USD) which currently sell for around $800 USD.

    I went on SteamID.uk and found that this user has changed their name 7 times in the span of one hour to multiple high-value accounts. (Figure 4). Obvious scammer using different names of high-value accounts to try to PayPal or Skin scam users.

    Figure 5 shows proof of the user's steam account and chat log.​

    Hi Horse,

    Thank you for looking into this. I wanted to let you know the player you linked above is the actual trader that was being impersonated.

    Sincerely,

    I'm only making a note because you only provided the custom URL - we need this info in the event the user changes the custom URL and we lose it.
    No need to reply again - will review soon
