    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Quick-switch trade scam or attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198992566418

    Victim profile: 76561198050638985

    What happened? Description:
    The person accused wanted to allegedly trade for my unusual in pure keys. He/she wanted me to price the unusual using several websites, the majority of such websites - the first 3 were genuine. The last website was a scam site intended to phish data and steal my unusual hat. The accused kept pressuring me to visit the last website and ceased communication when I said I will not access the website.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Please see the screenshots provided, if you attempt to visit the last website 'tf2.exchange' you will be met with a dodgy broken website made to look real in order to steal unusual hats. Be aware and do not log in through steam (THE WEBSITE REQUIRES YOU TO LOG INTO STEAM TO PRICE YOUR HATS - THIS IS HOW I KNOW THIS WAS A SCAMMER)​
