This user added the darkly tag to his name and began trying to middleman spycrab contests on TF2 Toronto #2 claiming he was an admin. He then took items (1 REF) from two people who were spycrabbing on the server and used him as a middleman and disconnected with the items. Shortly afterwards the imposter changed his name to Darkly | Gangbangers and joinedDARKLY | Dallas TF2 Trade/Idle #1. User then continued to tell people he was an admin on the Dallas server and attempted to middleman another spycrab contest to people who were Darkly Regulars and called him on his BS.

Ironically enough, one of his *3* friends is zingy15... who was also reported for spycrab misbehavior.

I've taken the liberty of banning both him and zingy15. I am waiting to talk to Gangbangers. Zingy won't accept my invite and blocked me. Go figure.

Please file an Scammer Report in the appropriate section and format - admin and middleman impersonation with the intent of fraud is a severe offense and qualifies for a SteamRep scammer tag.

All admins have a distinctive admin tag in front of their name, and all commands that request a MiddleMan are sent only to online admins. There isn't really anything else that can be done to prevent this.
