    Info:
    The two of them used Opskins to scam me. They asked me to install this extension for the site on Google Chrome which would tell me if any items I had were stolen/ scammed. Thinking it was harmless, I proceeded to install this extension. After I was done "selling" everything to these two people, I tried to buy a few skins for CS:GO from the store. Every time I tried checking out, I would get a message from the site saying I did not have enough funds. So I tried a few more times and still no progress so I figured it was a site glitch and would be fine by next morning. The next day I woke up and tried again and it still didn't work. After countless times refreshing the page and restarting my computer I decided to check the Opskins Twitter page only to find out that they did not have any Chrome extensions and anyone claiming there is, is trying to scam you. This tweet was made after I got scammed, I checked the Twitter to make sure I wasn't being scammed before I started selling. This extension allows fake Opskins bots to trade with you instead of the real bots. I'm not sure how to properly word this last part but the extension also shows a glitched amount for your funds. Every time you sell something the extension will obviously show that you did and you can see the amount of funds you have in your wallet. Those funds are not real, they are glitched in to fool you. I figured this out because on Chrome, which has the extension it shows my wallet balance as $1328. On any other search engine, my balance would show up as $0.

    Evidence:


    Misc. Info:
    Opskins Tweet saying they don't have Chrome extensions: https://twitter.com/opskinsgo/status/757234466477703168

    Items I lost: Unusual Crone's Dome (Aces High), Strange Australium Frontier Justice, Strange Australium Tomislav,Unusual Letch's LED (Frostbite), Strange Professional Killstreak Australium Flame Thrower, Unusual Das Hazmattenhatten (Dead Presidents), Strange Australium Eyelander, Strange Australium Stickybomb Launcher,Strange Australium Grenade Launcher, Strange Australium Rocket Launcher, The Smissmas Caribou,Strange Professional Killstreak Australium Minigun, SSG 08 | Blood in the Water (Minimal Wear), AWP | Asiimov (Battle Scarred), M4A1-S | Golden Coil (Minimal Wear), ★ Bayonet | Rust Coat (Battle Scarred), ★ Bowie Knife | Forest DDPAT (Field Tested)

    These items do not add up to $1328 as the scammers offered a lot of overpay which only lured me in more.

    Is there any private information you wish to provide?

    Hello @Admiral Anus,

    Thank you for the report. We are unable to mark either of the accused due to the lack of evidence, however we have banned the fake OPSkins bot.
