    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198445245178

    Victim profile: 76561198339861730

    What happened? Description:
    Messaged me wanting to buy my unusual (steaming company man). Later, I sold that one, but he offered 4 keys over price on my new unusual (blizzardy storm glengarry bonnet). He told me to enter an auction by putting items in a ScrapTF user storage bot. Once I did that, he said it wasn't working and told me to use user storage 6 to automatically enter his auction. ScrapTF doesn't automatically enter you in auctions, and you can't choose which bot (to my knowledge).​

    Provide Evidence:

    @PaperNebulaOfTaxiThrone Did you get any odd trade offers from any bots during this time?

    No. This is most likely because I went to ScrapTF by myself instead of clicking the link. In retrospect, I should've clicked the link to see what happened.

    I'm not sure if link is good or not but user was found to be an alt to a user and another account impersonating a scrap.tf bot or fake bot however you want to view it.
