Oh man! That middleman got in some deep shit!





Also funny how the guy scammed is suspected of stealing that item in the first place.


"This is a bizarre case, but what we have put together so far: An obvious scammer alt (1 month on Steam) had a Platinum Baby Roshan by shady means he was selling for Western Union and decided to use a middleman. Petey seems to have taken it upon himself to scam what he believed to be a scammer for his own profit, probably suspecting that the scammer's word would be ignored over his reputation. After some weird fits/starts on the transaction, Petey apparently took the Roshan and put it into another alternate account of his. I'm unsure where it ended-up. SteamRep and D2T received a scam report against Petey from a profile that has become trade banned now, who sounds like he might be an alt of the original seller. I'm uncertain why all parties involved seem to be shady (nor how many of them were working together), but it's definitely making the problem more confusing."

I reads of it and this is what an admin says... Treating him with some respect but still doing his job and warning everyone about trading with a scammer xD

"(Archiving the admission and information.)

Note: SteamRep will not be involved in any such giveaway. It is not recommended that anyone trade with a banned individual involved in fraud-- it can hurt their reputation or make it appear as they are working with them."

I really feel bad for the middle man now. But the seller scammed the PBR in the first place and an estimated about of 7k worth of items so he had that coming to him...
