    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] Steam Wallet fraud
    Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198848065559

    Victim profile: 76561198034399757

    What happened? Description:
    I listed one of DOTA2 items in the market. I got added by Margo and he asked me to buy this item directly from me and will pay me through steam wallet. He told me that we need a Middleman to confirm the transaction. He provided official links of the Middleman list and asked me to add 2 of them. However, only one Middleman accepted and his name is Atticus and his profile is: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198853338005

    So I followed the instruction to offer the Middleman the trade first so the buyer "Margo" sends me the steam wallet code. After he accepted the trade offer, I got kicked from chat group they created and the Middleman blocked me. Now, the buyer is not responding to my chat and I didn't get my money.
    I hope you take this seriously. We really want the steam community to be free of these scammers.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I uploaded the steam chat in the attached PDF.​

    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History showing for sure the trade in question(NOT TRADE OFFER!!)- open this with a web browser, move your mouse over the users name in question so it shows up the hypertext popup URL at the bottom of the screen - take the screen shot DO NOT edit it in anyway and upload. Also need a screen shot of your Paypal ACTIVITY (not Summary) for several days beginning with the date before this trade..full screen DO NOT edit this shot in anyway. Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Also please review this screenshot guide should you require assistance:

    That isn't full screen. Also sorry about the paypal...it was a macro.
    You were supposed to get a game code? Do you have where the user left the steam chat and didn't give you a code?

    It's full screen, I pressed ALT+Print Screen buttons to take it after hovering the mouse over the Middleman. The tooltip is at the bottom left as you can see.
    Please let me know if I should provide another shot.

    for the second question, you can see the end of our chat that he's not responding to me after blocking me. I uploaded the last chat and proof of blocking me.
