    Well today i came to steamrep and i saw that i had a SR caution tag. I admit, yes i traded with a marked scammer but i didnt knew he was marked. I'll explain: So i guess this tag happened because i traded with http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197997150514 , he is my friend in real life but i didnt know that he was a marked scammer. A day he asked me if i could hold some items because he was going to be out of town for a few days and he wanted to change account because he was going to give that one to his younger brother. I suspected a bit , why not creating a new account to his broder?, but since i was friend with him for a long time i didnt suspect to the point to doubt his story. So i traded with him and i hold his items for about a week. After that i got added by the other account that he created and i gave the items back. I was stupid for not suspect, but i really trusted him, he was one of my friends. I want to know what i need to do to get the tag removed, i guess im kinda of a "victim" here.

    Hello @Ender :D, as you probably know the policy on trading with scammers has been retroactively changed, so I am granting this appeal and removing your tag. http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/policy-change-trades-with-scammer-policy-end-of-life.119528/

    Read this topic: http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/appeal-tips.66354/
    And please pay special note to the following point(s):
    #24: Your appeal was granted, what now?

    For the future, we recommend taking care who you trade with. While we no longer issue tags for trading with scammers, other communities may still ban you. Additionally, if it doesn't earn a trade ban from Valve, we may still issue tags for brokering/fencing with scammers. If you want to trade with a single scammer, we won't hold it against you, but further systematic trades with scammers can still earn you a tag.
