    Victim profile: 76561199078492085

    What happened? Description:
    From the start, I was playing TF2 and saw this guy called ''Matt Gift'' saying that he was gifting free items, so I friended him and a month later he messaged me, he said I could get any items under 2,000 keys, so I did that, and while he was ''processing'' his bot I searched him on youtube and what do you know? He was a scammer, then he finished and send me a trade, saying that he sent a trade and it may look like that he is taking my items but the bot would change the items in the system but I found out he was a scammer and I stopped it and left, now I lost the trade but I still have the whole chat log, if you want me to post more of that i will,​

    Provide Evidence:
    I lost the trade so yeah.​
