1. There is no such thing as a "pending" ban or Steam admin. Anyone threatening your account is a scammer trying to scare you. Read more.

    Description:
    This user added me out of the blue and said they wanted to buy some valuable TF2 items I had on the market for $160. I told them I wasn't interested in dealing outside of Steam, but they were welcome to buy them off of the market. They replied that the deal would be entirely within Steam, I just had to take the items off of the market and deal through the new "Trade Offer" feature. When I pointed out that I was well aware that wasn't possible, they removed me. I can only assume that they intended to prey on people's unfamiliarity with the new trade process (along the lines of the old "/me has transfered $x to your wallet." scams) to scam items without actually sending money, and I figured it was worth a warning to the community here.

    12:36 AM - Shiloh-kun☠: Hey
    12:36 AM - Lunk: Hi there, what's up?
    12:36 AM - Shiloh-kun☠: I would like to buy your s.f. medi gun and some keys for 160$
    12:37 AM - Lunk: Sorry, but I don't sell outside of Steam.  If you want to buy it off the market you're certainly welcome to, but I'm not interested in dealing with Paypal or anything like that.
    12:38 AM - Shiloh-kun☠: Not paypal
    12:38 AM - Shiloh-kun☠: take it off market and you will see
    12:38 AM - Shiloh-kun☠: its through steam
    12:38 AM - Lunk: There's no legitimate way to transfer money through Steam outside of the market.
    12:38 AM - Shiloh-kun☠: through the new trade offer thing
    12:38 AM - Shiloh-kun☠ is now Offline.
    
    Thanks for your time!

    Remarkable you know that still since this report was made 4 months ago. Either way, I've approved the report. Shiloh. If what you say is true, your profile = your responsibility. We don't mark people, we mark profiles.

    I'm sorry for being so harsh, but any family member can use their own steam account without one causing problems on another. We cannot be held responsible for things that is done on your account without your awareness.

    Regards,
    Skyrider
