Just got scammed :( Avoid this user

Sorry to hear that m8 thats one of the reasons I will never trade.
Grrr that makes me so pissed off. Well Thanks for the heads up bro.

Sorry to hear that. I'll watch out, and give him the most annoying time of his life :D

I was scammed too in exactly the same way and I have lost Renegade Ops ;( So,mate you're not alone! :( Scammer:fraizzerone

I'm just glad I didn't lose anything too valuable, got stalker from the amazon bundle :)

There is never a reason to go first with a SteamGift.

Trading with keys is bad anyway. Would'nt do it at all, too risky.

why would you go first with someone who has no references/rep? :(

Edit: here's his profile for anyone that would like to block him (as I have done)

This is why I never go first.

Report him at steamrep. Too bad that did happened that's why i try to trade keys only after receiving the game/key first, or at least try to give only 1 key first and then making him to give the game and then give out any other key (if you do 2:1 or more).

I saved a couple of people though, I checked his friends list and added them and told them not to trade with hanibaL. One guy told me hanibaL offered him Max Payne 3 for some cheap game lol.

Karma just avenged ubisoft

I was saved by the bell

I'm sorry to hear that, but this is Steamgifts. There's a reason I don't spend time on Steamtrades and that's because I don't want to hear about all the crap involved with trading.

there you go

Is your fault for going first and not knowing how to trade. I hope you made some screens so you can report him on steamrep.

Tell Valve with proof of chat and so on, they may ban the other guy and remove the game and the key will be ready to use again. This happened to a friend so not 100% if it will work.

I wonder why nobody tries to retrieve account back when trying to redeem that key on steam, you have the receipt after all so you have proof that game is yours and steam might block/remove his key and give it back to you or something (I heard steam can revoke key, so you could try that), or even ask refund on amazon or steam to get the keys removed from him since I heard of people refunding their games that they gave away on this site and winners end up with losing the won game, I never tried to trade or got scammed yet but you can bet you ass I'd do everything imaginable to get that key back and ban that fucker who scammed me, also don't try to flame mm'kay?

This Scumbag hijacked me!

And this is, his little friend also stole

His alternate name "haLLoN"
I hope they will locked from here forever!

So it turns out this scumbag actually just left a message on my profile offering Skyrim for my Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Anyone have any good ideas about how I can screw with him? I'm going back to bed now but I'll check back tomorrow =P

Golden rule - don't trust people who can't properly speak english.

I am sorry to hear that. :/

In the future, ask for a reputable middleman to use in a trade, if he doesn't want to do it with a middleman, he's probably a scammer.

I reported the guy

just contact steam support.

My best advice is to never trade CD keys, NEVER.

If you actually get the game as a gift in your steam inventory then you both will be able to trade the things at same time but with CD keys it's ALWAYS risky and there's like 70% that it's a scam.

Use steamtrades and also pay attetion on reviews of the users. There are some scammers there also, but It's safer.

When random people add you, don't add them, never trade first unless you know them. This way you never get scammed.
