Good job. That was definitely a scam. At least he didn't attack you for turning him down like some do.

Trade
[H]$50 Steam Gift Card
[W] X number of CS:GO keys. but I'm not going first, I don't want to be scammed
---Seen on a new level 2 Steam account. So yep, this happens, while something can be monetized or high valued, will be people wanting to make profit on it.

Yep, that's a scam attempt.. xD
Why would you accept someone with private profile anyway?

No ST or other trade site account? Also my antenna went way up at "I just bought this Steam account yesterday"....

Yeah, I reported the steam account with a screenshot xD

I'd give him a benefit of a doubt he meant "I bought game and created this account yesterday", at least until I'd check profile and see it has some game with hundreds hours on it.

Yes, of course - it could be a language barrier...

You didn't hide his name when he went Offline.
And I also think it was a scam attempt.

Although I can't know for sure if it was a scam attempt, it surely looks like one. xD And you'll see many more scammers in your trading career, you can be sure of that. xD

If they were looking for an honest trade, they wouldn't be afraid of doing the fair thing and going first based on both of your reputations. Also the "bought this account yesterday" is definitely another instant red flag.

Basically if anyone level 2-4 with a private profile tries to add you on Steam, block them. They are all scammers.

I watch on steamrep first, He was lvl 20 and a 2014 account.. But he bought the account.

If their profile is private you can't see the level till you add them. If you add them and you can't see the level then they have their account profile hidden from even friends.

I don't think if buying/selling steam account is legal ... so... i will ignore someone like them

You have +rep on steamtrades? +rep means a shit and I wouldnt trade with someone who said "I have many +rep so Im trustworthy". -.-
quote steamrep:
Never trust anyone for having +rep comments. No matter how many pages, +rep's are worthless!
Comment has been collapsed.
They're probably talking about the +rep comments on steam walls, not on steamtrades. :P

+rep on steamtrades are worthless too. I never used steamtrades but have +6 rep, dont know why.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, not always. Sometimes it's fake +rep, sometimes the +rep is acquired with petty ways, sometimes it's acquired by selling games that will get revoked in the future and all the +rep will change to -rep, etc. :P But sometimes, the +rep is well-deserved, because of a successful transaction.

Yeah, but it is a factor to keep in mind to go first... I found her steamtrade account.. He was a know scammer with -12rep

Never trust anyone but yourself.
Steamrep is just another website, so useless as well. Scammers can create (or even buy) new accounts for scams.

Whenever I trade, I go by one simple rule: whoever initiates the trade sends all keys first, regardless of rep status. If I spot something that strikes me as shady like low-lvl private accts, I let the trade expire or cancel it. Of course in any online trading there is a risk of being duped, it's up to us to police ourselves.

never trade with private profiles. there's a 99.99% chance the guy is a scammer:)

This reads like a 12 year old who got scammed decided to try doing it to other people...

In my country, we say sorry for education. In that case,I'm sorry for the no deal in the case if he wasn't a scammer
Comment has been collapsed.
why hide the scammer's name? we would like to see it to be aware of the person in the future....

I think there are some rules in the forum about it

SG has a "no calling out" rule. I highly recommend reading the FAQ and site rules, especially since you're a relatively new member. Otherwise, you could inadvertently break a rule and be suspended.
