    What happened? Description:
    Hello friends, hello foes.

    Today, a very nasty scammer came around my mighty authority, and guess what?
    Using the classic scam-trick of phishing the Steam OpenID with the phishing website called "TF2zone"

    All started simple with adding me in the first place.
    I accepted and asked him with "Any good reason why add? I'll give you 10 minutes."
    He came up with "Hey I want to buy items"
    Sure no big problem, then I'll hold my eyes and ears up and listen up to what he wants.
    So he wants my 3 (cursed) items for 55$ (approx 30 keys), but he doesn't have it in pure.
    He asked me to trust him and that I can pay him with an external payment, the "crypto" whatever it is called.
    His SteamRep profile seems clear and profile age also sort of ok about 2 years.
    But it's smelly, that he ONLY wants to trade with crypto currency, as there is a trick that comes in handy with "You'll give the items, then he'll surely pays you the wanted money"
    BUT hold on, don't think that it could go easely, every smart scammer will cut the middle of the trade and keeping the looted goods while the seller not receiving the money, as the typical paypal chargeback scam.
    Nothing is really safe out there.
    His account might be hijacked or bought from someones hand.
    Also the screenshot of his Personal ID, trying to bait me, but failed miserably, as faking ID's is easy and as just throwing published pictures as example of ID cards etc. is a cheap move)

    I acted like stupid, because if I would have acted harsh and laughing at the moment where he wants to pay with Crypto, then he will immediately abort and simply escape the failed scam attempt.
    So I played the stupid naive boy until the very far end, where I have to search up the price by myself to compare for these items, but there comes the nasty trick nr.2 out of his sleeves.
    I'll have to login in order to search, what a funny joke, so you're not allowed to search or even clicking a pixel until you're finally logged in, what a joke.
    So yeah, I'll just throw in a link of people facing up with moment too with tf2zone, and at this point, he'll abandoned the attempt as he fell for it and failed, wasted him straight up 30 minutes.

    So I'll be the first man, who will mark him down, take a look on the screenshots.
    This account might be part of the tacobot.tf scammer business, who knows, where they get buttloads of money to do that much of mvm 24/7.

    (Sorry for the bad gramma, I'm german-ish)​

    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:40am CEST like you dont have to deposit or trade in the items just to check it
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:39am CEST oh ofc
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:39am CEST ?
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:39am CEST Is this website safe, never saw it before.
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:38am CEST i already checked it in backpack and other market sites. as well. i only want you to send me a screenshot of the cash list price of those 2 there in tf2.zone so i could compare it
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:37am CEST I'll take a check, the prices seems unstable though
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:37am CEST i want to have basis of it first and compare
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:36am CEST https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd....596/9D4EB146F97EE52A336C3F4331C2815220EC2B02/
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:36am CEST could you show me the current cash list price for these 2 items in https://tf2.zone/
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:36am CEST i can buy
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:36am CEST uhmm
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:29am CEST So uh, what now? I accept the deal of these items for 55$ (30 keys approx), as soon you got the keys, you're ok with that? (I'll note it down to my pinwall, so I don't forget it)
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:27am CEST Yeah
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:26am CEST its okay
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:25am CEST Good thing is, that you're not steamrep marked/reported and that your account is created 2 years ago, no suspect on that. I'm very cautious, pardon me.
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:23am CEST Welp you're sort of right, but nothing's truly safe. However. In my opinion it's safe to go for the deal of keys pure (55$ aprrox 30 keys (1,85$/Key) Sure you don't have them at the moment, but in case you can buy they keys on mannco or communitymarket and one week later we'll can strike the deal. I'm not experienced about trading and trust however, but I am aware on most of it
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:21am CEST or ask someone you know who uses crypto
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:21am CEST search it in google
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:21am CEST crypto does not have chargebacks xD
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:20am CEST oh
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:20am CEST no offense.
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:20am CEST Because of chargeback scams and troll offs
    ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Look its a gnomeey Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:20am CEST Nah I'm not a fan of it.
    Look its a gnomeey ⎛⎝Corvalteo Corrax⎠⎞ Jul 24, 2021 @ 2:19am CEST https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd....913/2DA96AB6B6A8E54F069FE284DD27EB936320E449/
