    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198041048198

    Victim profile: 76561198075555478

    What happened? Description:
    The person initially wanted my Dead Head cosmetic, but I declined and offered a Killstreak AWPer Hand. He said he'll offer 4-5 keys if I throw in my Starboard Crusader hat. I accepted and sent him a trade offer. But before accepting, he said he needed a "steam admin" to verify my items. At that point I instantly knew something was wrong.​

    [8:56 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    its about your The Dead Head
    can i offer pure keys?

    [8:59 PM]
    Facade:
    sorry, that's not for sale.

    [8:59 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    what stuff you willing to trade?

    [9:01 PM]
    Facade:
    are you willing to buy a basic killstreak AWPer Hand?

    [9:02 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:

    [9:03 PM]

    okay, before i click the confirmation on my mobile may i ask you something?

    [9:07 PM]
    Facade:
    yes?

    [9:07 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    how and where did you get your stuff?

    [9:08 PM]
    Facade:
    all of my stuff, or just the items that I offered?

    [9:08 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    yea mate

    [9:09 PM]
    Facade:
    I got most of it through an unboxing spree

    [9:10 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    okay I just want to make sure that I am safe with you here in the trade because I don't want to experience the same thing happened to me the last time I traded I was f✿✿✿ed up
    I hope you understand my concern

    [9:10 PM]
    Facade:
    I also got some of it through Securely buy and sell TF2 items (marketplace.tf)
    http://marketplace.tf
    Is that a concern for you?

    [9:11 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    to be honest, I just want to have a safe trade with you here after I lost all of my investment and get locked my account after I receive some of those fraud items
    I'm just being careful here and I want you too also, okay?

    [9:11 PM]
    Facade:
    yeah, I understand

    [9:12 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    if you don't mind can we both undergo item verification by valve official from steam support first just to have assurance if we really trading safe items
    I will be the one will pay for their service fee but don't worry no item will be leaving on our inventory just only a checking item
    okay, sounds good?

    [9:13 PM]
    Facade:
    Huh?

    [9:14 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    before the trading mate, we need to check or verify the item using the steam admin support
    because only the steam admin can do that
    for the safety for our trade
    okay?
    lets do this quickly mate
    are you done this before?

    [9:18 PM]
    Facade:
    what's the steam admin you're talking about?

    [9:18 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    wait let me find an admin that is available now, wait for a second
    okay?

    [9:19 PM]
    Facade:
    I find it weird that you need a steam admin to check for items.

    [9:19 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    yea, we need to find steam admin to assist both of us
    okay?
    mate?

    [9:24 PM]
    Facade:
    Can't you just accept the trade offer, though?

    [9:25 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    but i need to do item assurance first before the trade
    lets do this quickly mate
    then i will confirm the offer
    okay?

    [9:25 PM]
    Facade:
    what's the hurry?
    Are you going somewhere?

    [9:25 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:
    i will find steam admin to assist with us
    okay

    [9:26 PM]
    Facade:
    Where's this steam admin?

    [9:26 PM]
    Luffy | Trade.tf:

    [9:33 PM]
    Facade:

    [9:34 PM]

    @Facade00 You failed to provide a way to verify you are reporting the right user here using a FULL screenshot of the users profile WHILE friends.
    This would have shown that.
    Please follow next set of instructions to verify this.
    Issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the popup of the profile. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's Full Screen, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Please review this screenshot guide should you need assistance:

    Not exactly - I had looked before posting and you were not friends with this user however you just got a screenshot of their profile as if you are still just 7 minutes ago
    Can you explain that?

    I went back to the user's profile while I was still friends with that person. Right now he has me blocked.
