Feral Angel Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 So, I haven't been trading with unusuals for a while, but I still get scammers that want my unusuals. Of course I go over everything, backpacks, steamrep etc. My question is why do they constantly ask for my trade URL? They do and I just tell them that they aren't that limited to knowledge to go to my profile. I'm just curious, what can they do with it? Anything bad?

Wokath Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 They do it when they are busy trying to scam another person, or they do it to give them self some more time to create fake profiles, and do research. Its a way to keep you interested in the conversation and/or keep you busy so that you don't get suspicious. Another reason is that he/she is trying to fool you into thinking he/she is new at trading.

beponeko Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 My guess is they are trying to convince you that they are ready to trade. I've had scammers ask me this too but there's always a catch before they actually send any trade offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
