MAXIMUS Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Hello Today I received a proposal of exchange where a backpack.tf bot wants 4 items of mine in exchange for nothing and sent this message: We need to verify suspicious item(s) from your inventory. If you decline trade, your account will be suspended from backpack.tf Is it scam correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piterek Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Yep, it's a scam attempt. Don't accept, block the guy who sent it and report him if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 This is a scam. A backpack.tf bot would never send you a trade offer to 'check suspicious items'. Decline and block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woifi The Viking Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Can confirm, there are no bp.tf bots who do that. The only bp.tf bots in existance right now are bots who accept your donations and you can only donate via the site itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haxor Gaming Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 A really good idea is to get the SteamHelper extension for chrome. You can copy the link address from Steam into chrome and check to see if the person is banned on any Websites or Gaming Communities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lava Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Relevant: https://forums.steamrep.com/pages/about-item-checking-scam/ Please share that link with people who might have questions like OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woifi The Viking Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Relevant: https://forums.steamrep.com/pages/about-item-checking-scam/ Please share that link with people who might have questions like OP. If i may suggest something about that link. It would probably be better if all the small text was hidden in spoilers. Many people are scared/bored of too much text, and despite having a good format with the headlines it might still be too much for people. So my suggestion is just make the headlines visible and if someone wants to show the small text they just have to click a button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
