    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Money] PayPal scam or scam attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198986439748

    Victim profile: 76561198399395634

    What happened? Description:
    Hello, I was added by Purple, who saw my bp.tf listing for my king cardbeard
    He didn't comment on my profile. Has sparse items, 66 keys, and some unusual taunts but no stranges, haunted items or unusual hats!!
    Flat 100 level, in group "High Tier Traders" (lol)

    He offered keys at first, but he wanted to see the 'stats' I offered bp.tf stats which were "outdated".

    He wanted me to use tf2true.com, which I have never heard of. I opened it (stupidly), and it loaded in russian. That got me suspicious.

    I said it was down, and he offered marketplace.tf, that actually was down.

    Then he offered mannco.store, I asked about the keys and he unadded me.

    Now, he didn't actually do anything to me, but this is obviously a bot impersonation scam.

    Sorry if I didn't mention something! Been out of trading for a while :)​
