    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Misrepresenting virtual items
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198111889212

    Victim profile: 76561198111518843

    What happened? Description:
    He added me, then linked me to a real profile (Not his) He was impersonating the real LegoTonix by putting a link in his account that sends the user to the real LegoTonix his backpack.
    Then he says that you can pick an item from there, no matter what, he'll send you the offer and we're done. Sounds easy right?

    Well then he asks if I could give my unusual to a ''Official Valve Employee'' to make sure we're having a ''safe'' trade. So he tried the steam verification item scam.

    I then tell him that he's stupid and that he's trying to scam me, and like every little scared scammer he blocks me. He even admitted he scammed me, must be a typo but pretty funny :p

    When I click on the link it sends me to the real LegoTonix (It also says beware of impersonators, It also says on his profile that he doesn't do steam verification).

    @PyroAssassin Please don't edit screenshots in the future.
    Also this user is already banned/tagged - there is nothing more we can do to them.
    Should you come across a user like this again its best to report them to Valve, delete and move on.
