    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Gambling] Fake gambling website
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198868290398

    Victim profile: 76561198153488682

    What happened? Description:
    Randomly added me. He is involved in this rabbit-hole of these fake TF2 Gambling Websites where he offers "free weekly items" for advertising. Whole thing is completely bogus... He shouldn't be able to go by scott-free for being involved with this.

    The website he sent me is tf2divine.com

    I have since blocked him and I only have one screenshot of the chatlog. But it highlights specifically where he attempted to begin the scam itself.​

    Provide Evidence:
    tf2divine.com

    Has the same setup as every other scam website I've seen so far. Examples being tf2shock.com and tf2valley.com (both of which have been shutdown since) View attachment 731879 ​
