What happened? Description:

A very long winded impersonation scam utilizing an alternate account of 76561198199844147.

Most Wanted:
ok so basically i just wanted to see your unusual listed on the site first so i can check its marketable because im planning to sell the unusual there after we trade in steam, is that ok with you?
dont get me wrong though, im not buying it from the site or with real money. we'll trade in steam and im paying 40 keys for it

[7:12 PM]
fat hairy man:
k

[7:13 PM]
Most Wanted:
ok so can you go to bitskins .com or google it to make sure. then sign in your steam there, tell me when you're done so i can help you out ok.

[7:14 PM]
fat hairy man:

[7:16 PM]

[7:16 PM]
fat hairy man:

[7:17 PM]
Most Wanted:
ok now click the SELL ITEMS button at the top right and tell me when you're there

[7:17 PM]
fat hairy man:
yeah i'm already there

[7:17 PM]
Most Wanted:
when you're there, don't do anything with your unusual yet or you might list it for sale. i can't check if it's marketable there if you'll do that
ok now i'll show you how the site works when you'll list an item as marketable so you'll know it's safe and you can trust it later on ok
so first click the CUSTOM button at the Pricing section
and then choose a cheap item from your inventory to use for testing the site, any cheap item ok
after that the site will ask you to set a price so put 999 or any high price for it
tell me when that's all done because i need to explain something to you afterwards ok

[7:18 PM]
fat hairy man:
aight
so now what

[7:21 PM]
Most Wanted:
ok after that you'll see this green "Send me a trade offer" button at the right side of the page
but don't press that button ok
just ignore that button pls do not press it
because if you'll press that, i can't check if it's marketable there or not
you get me

[7:21 PM]
fat hairy man:
yewa

[7:21 PM]
Most Wanted:
ok can you send a screenshot of the Sell Items page so i know you're at the correct one if thats ok with you

{LINK REMOVED}

[7:22 PM]
Most Wanted:
ok Sell Items page
so what's the cheap item you've chosen so i can check it on the site as well
you can see the name of the item there i think

[7:22 PM]
fat hairy man:
scottish handshake

[7:24 PM]
Most Wanted:
ok now you just need to wait for your item to reach the Sales queue box under the green button that shows your item like this -> "Scottish Handshake @ $999"

[7:24 PM]
fat hairy man:
yup

[7:24 PM]
Most Wanted:
so if you see your item at the Sales queue then you'll wait for the site to send you an offer automatically for the item you're listing
so if you see your item's name at the sales queue then go check your steam offers, see if the site sent one
you get me
