    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198070912592

    Victim profile: 76561198097231682

    What happened? Description:
    This is a guy who I met in a trading server, the regulars spoke of the accused being shady but I didn't take too much notice until now. We were having a pretty normal conversation until he mentioned interest in one of my unusuals, a Neutron Star Greased Lightning. He tells me another user (who so happens to be a friend of mine) accused me of being a scammer, and he is distrustful of me. I immediately let him know I'll speak with the friend about the subject to which the accused violently reacts and pleads for me not to say anything, the accused didn't know I asked anyways and my friend verified for me he never made such a claim, if needed I can add a screen of that here. He then continues to accuse me of malicious activities so I send my rep tf link (which if you didn't know is a site that shows all reputations on all the community sites) but he refused to look and implies it was a phishing link to hijack his account. I grow inpatient with him, and ask what his offer even is but he continues this ridiculous notion he would be banned should he trade me. He then comes to the conclusion that I need to do his specific "safety test" which is to send my items to an "admin" for him to verify that I traded them legitimately and therefore he wouldn't be banned if he made the purchase (which he never even gave an actual offer on).

    I've uploaded printscreens of the conversation that are relevant to this case

    YOU DO REALIZE THAT ISNT ME. You know good and well that I don't do Unusual Trading, did you check his profile and all of the sorts?
    Please follow that account.
