knavesmith Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 This isn't anything new. You can try to report it to SteamRep if you have the required evidence, which would be as effective as using a dry toothbrush to scrub your shower floor. Other than that, there isn't anything you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best faggot NA kappa Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 No way to get your stuff back man, never seen someone else get their stuff back from scam's like these. Just be aware next time and don't get involved in these situations. Just like knave said, if you have evidence. Go to steamrep. But it's barely effective.Best of luck in the future.

Euphoria Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 This isn't anything new. You can try to report it to SteamRep if you have the required evidence, which would be as effective as using a dry toothbrush to scrub your shower floor. Other than that, there isn't anything you can do. it would be quite effective actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joguzz Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Just go to the scammer's profile, select "Report a violation" and tell them what happened. From what i understand this usually doesn't happen, but might as well try, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joguzz Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Also, if he already sold it to someone else, i doubt you're getting it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian. Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 the middleman is my real life friend in ssh That still does not disprove my point as to why you would need a middleman for steam item trading,obviously use one for paypal but normal items...It's just common sense.

Best faggot NA kappa Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 He remove me as friend how do i even have time for copying I'm assuming you closed the chat log with "Stat"? Since, even if he removes you, as long as you didn't close it you have it all there. If so, ask your friend if he still has it. If not, I don't think I can help you further if you don't have any proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punishment_Fatal Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 *sigh* I don't know what to say. http://steamrep.com/search?q=Ngkialon101 Says right here that they have 5 pending reports against them, all for the same thing. Another thing to add that seems a bit obvious that it was a scam is that they have 3 hours in TF2. With 3 hours in TF2, you're bound to not have an Unusual unless a. You just cashed out your Dota 2/CS:GO bp and are trying to make it into the TF2 economy, b. You are insanely rich irl and bought an Unusual and are trying to sell it, or c. You don't have one, which the latter seems the most apparent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
