I got banned from backpack.tf just yesterday for an accidental chargeback on marketplace.tf, due to identity theft 13 months ago

[RussellSproutz]

It was when I went to Mexico during around August - September 2021 when I noticed fraudulent charges on my card with my paypal. It was only $37.10 with paypal covering $20, so it $17.10. What's worse is that they called me a scammer and I should be on some watch list on to not trade.  I was trying to get appealed and fixed a month and a half prior before this incident. I'm currently doing it again. I got banned from backpack.tf just yesterday, September 30, 2022 for an accidental chargeback on marketplace.tf, due to identity theft that happened 13 months ago

I got a feeling it was due to the exit scammer I reported.

 

An hour later:
 

Funny thing I wasn't even trading anymore. I was just backing up some friends who were victims to this exit scammer.

To be honest, I got no hate for backpack.tf mods, but I got a feeling that this was personal. This exit scammer, hero even said some sus crap Its because hours later that same exit scammer was showing off that he won. I don't mind putting the evidence here either since backpack.tf closed my report on him:

"An Hero" is an alt of the exit scammer, Eudai aka as Merci - https://steamcommunity.com/id/traderslovehim/

 

He's also an alt of https://steamcommunity.com/id/Milkowner/ Milkmann aka Nigel Plumkan He's currently banned on firepowered since he's a suspected alt

https://gyazo.com/c9a724161ecd690f451d1bad04c488cb Don't trade him at all!

 

This is his inventory: https://backpack.tf/profiles/76561199215745252 https://backpack.tf/item/2196997493

 

He scammed my friend Inpecular's duped aces antlers

 

https://backpack.tf/item/2729059490

 

He scammed my friend's Mr. Pablo's nuts antlers

 

https://backpack.tf/item/5266075758

 

He scammed Ping's strange Tesla coil prehistoric pullover

 

To reiterate don't trade with at all! There's more items that were scammed. I just was able to note the aces antlers, nuts antlers, and the strange Tesla coil prehistoric pullover since I have known these victims for those items especially as they were my friends.

 

Update: It's funny he also -rep'd me saying I was an incoming exit scammer, but I have redeemed myself in following through with my Paypal deals and am currently still in the process of appealing my bans from my passed offenses on the marketplace and on firepowered.

 

Truly an absolute scumbag this "Eudai- merci -An Hero" is.

 

I wouldn't trade with him even period. Don't trade with him at all. I've also reported him on steam with evidence.

He's also banned on firepowered https://rep.tf/76561199215745252

 

Truly this An Hero/ Nigel Plumkan/Eudai/Merci has not only ripped off thousands of dollars out thousands of victims. He's truly pathetic

I resorted to putting even here since I'm already being pushed to no other options. I'm going to put the rest this evidence to report this punk on steam rep. He thinks he got away with this, but before I leave TF2, I'll make sure he either gives those items back or I at least get him trade banned so he can't make any money from this.

I think this guy was in the backpack discord trying to unload scammed items for quick keys.

Yeah I was able to see it as well. From what I've seen he hasn't got any luck fortunately. I just found his listings just 2 days ago when he was trying to sell it again. Truly deplorable.

Yeah looking at it can't reverse anything. I'm even willing to pay via paypal to them again or even keys equivalence rate. Either way I've already submit an appeal on marketplace.tf to find a way to resolve it. Hopefully I'll get a response for the next steps sooner than later.

I hope so. Its horrible. I've been currently appeal some charges on my credit and debit currently still ongoing. Then with paypal as well. I even have to freeze my credit score. I do appreciate it homie.

Hope things works out in the end. There is a special place in h*ll for scammers, especially those who hijack other user accounts.

I agree, broski.This exit scammer has done it multiple times now. People like this can't keep getting away with it.
