Capuless Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Long story short I was scammed and so were many others. The guy who scammed me is very complex. He has many alts and I have traced where my stolen item went to through the history of unusual. (I don't know if that is the best way to do it though). So I need the help of you guys to help so I can file a report. How He Scammed Me: Via PayPal He sent a invoice(<--that is a bill) with a message that looks like he sent you funds and that it would take up to 24 hours to transfer into your account What It Looked Liked: You've received an invoice Hello *** ******, ***** ****** sent you an invoice for $170.00 USD. Note from ***** ****** You have received a Family/Friends PayPal Bank Transfer! This payment $170.00 for the Virtual Item(s). This payment could take up to 24 hours to reflect in your PayPal balance however this payment is fully paid for and is transferring into your account. This transaction is non refundable. Any charge-backs or disputes will be declined by PayPal. Stolen Item(s): Anti-Freeze Tartan Spartan http://backpack.tf/item/2640107943 (Scammed from http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198119038760) (Scammer http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198072700634) Circling Peace Sign Bubble Pipehttp://backpack.tf/item/3699934336 (Scammed from http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198160575586/) (Scammer http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198072700634) Australium Stickybomb Launcherhttp://backpack.tf/item/3938146545 (Scammed from http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198160575586/) (Scammer http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198072700634) Intial Account ThatScamed Me: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198072700634 Scammer Alt(s): http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197963606998 (This scammer alt has been proven) Past / Current Owners Of Anti-Freeze Tartan Spartan: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198034898515 http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198053252981 Any help by the tf2 community would be a great help because I want to help keep the community safe and clean from people like this. I have screen shots of the chat between me and the scammer if needed. Is it possible that the people that sold the scammer keys put the +reputation before receiving the money? Thank you. *Update* My Anti-Freeze Tartan Spartan was moved from http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198053252981 to idk where. The history has not updated.

polar Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 The last two aren't alts. They just bought the hat for very cheap from the scammers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
λngelღмander Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 If you still have screenshots of the chat, with his name at the top included, (the entire chat, not just where he sends you the invoice) then I can help you draft a report on Fortress of Gamers, (not forum of gamers.) I can't assure you much closure, as more than likely the people who will be marked are on new accounts and will just switch again after getting marked, but at least you can inconvenience them. You'll want screenies of everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capuless Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 The last two aren't alts. They just bought the hat for very cheap from the scammers. This guy (http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198053252981) added me a few days after I was scammed and he told me he bought it with a link to a picture. I was skeptical of the link and never clicked it. The reason for that is that I noticed my unusual in his bp and I thought it was another one of his alts trying to fish me for the rest of my stuff. Next day he blocked me so yeah. But thanks for telling me they were not alts. What should I do with the suspected alt info now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capuless Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 The last two aren't alts. They just bought the hat for very cheap from the scammers. A quick question. If one or both of them traded with a scammer wouldn't that mark them for trading with a scammer? Unless the scammer wasn't marked back then.
