Billybin_ Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Fucking sucks! He even told me that the scattergun was 12 ref, and sent me bp.tf for a festive scattergun strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Alex Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Common scam, no need to announce yet another victim Should've visited his BP profile https://backpack.tf/u/76561198833634376 and see this: Make fullscreen unedited screenshots of your (browser) chat/trades and make a report by clicking on the red flag icon.

The Walking Wingull Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Yeah it really sucks, but at least now you know about it and can be more careful in the future. As well, I know losing out on those things sucks but at least it wasn't worth a massive amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baloo Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Damn fam, that's a serious case of blinded by greed. Getting offered "3 times" what you paid should send up some pretty big red flags. Also him telling you its worth 12 refined is pretty great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i do not have any chat logs sadly but it's a scam bot impersonating a trade bot that had an unusual virtual viewfinder and the scam bot said they'd give it to me and even bribed me with a picture of a fake trade with the item.

jamil Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Oh well, backpack.tf doesn't give you free items for it. Most you can do it file a huge report for him on steam rep or rep.tf, and get him banned on there. Hope you be able to get the profit back, good luck.
