Further accusations reveal walker stole additional ~$1,600 of skins
Following the publication of Dust2.us' investigation into allegations that former Reason player Walker "walker" Harris stole around $1,000 of skins from multiple skin lenders, the publication has been made aware of further accusations that those alleged thefts did not cover the whole breadth of the situation.
According to nap, one of the owners of Skins4Pros, walker has allegedly stolen an additional four skins valued at around $1,600 from multiple lenders. When combined with the original accusation, it is understood that the total value of stolen skins amounts to around $3,000. However, unlike the skins highlighted in our original story, these newly-reported skins remain on walker's profile, meaning he is yet to profit from withholding them from their original owners.
As a refresher, walker came to hold these skins via the niche skin lending community. Essentially, the community exists for the purposes of lending skins to professional players for use in official matches. It is understood that walker allegedly asked a massive number of these lenders to borrow skins, eventually convincing a small contingent of them to lend skins to him. Under this false pretense, it appears that walker's end goal was to sell them for cash for an unknown purpose.
By casting this wide net, walker managed to acquire this new group of four skins between October 1st and October 3rd, around the same time he sold the previous group of skins to Kevin "consti" Yi.
This can be verified by using a website like using a website like CSFloat, which can prove the items went into walker's inventory and remain there at the time of publication.
These skins include:
In light of this new evidence of further alleged theft and a wider scale of potentially fraudulent activity, Dust2.us once again attempted to try to get in contact with walker so he could shine light on these actions. Unfortunately, since he did not reply to a request for comment, it leaves many unanswered questions about why a previously well-regarded player would brazenly steal skins that can easily be tracked back to his real account.
