    I spoke with the accused scammer, he basically admitted that he scammed saying that anyone offering keys is a scammer. He then blocked me.

    Titanfall keys are released in US and eshops are sending them to people who pushared them so they can Pre-Load it. Well at least czech eshops are doing that.

    You're correct, I edited my post. In any event, since he's given a confession of sorts, I'll pass this on, however, please keep in mind we don't normally handle CD key scams and it's best to report them to Steam.

    He did something similar with me.
    Contacted me about a Steam Game Swap Post. Tried to pressure me into sending him my game key first because of my lower flair. When asked what his user name was he said he didnt know and then unfriended me.
    Stay away.
    Here was our convo.
