    What happened? Description:
    The user added me and then approached me to buy my unusual:
    He appears to be using backpack.tf as his source since thats the only place I've listed my unusual for sale. He added me quite shortly after bumping it there.

    13:43 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: hey
    13:42 - Khad: Hey
    13:43 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: how much fo your unusual in buds or keys?
    13:42 - Khad: The Stormy Storm Prancer's Pride?
    13:44 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: how muc hfor all?
    13:43 - Khad: only selling this one ;)
    1 bud / 15 keys
    13:44 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: 15buds for both unusaul?

    Even before checking him this set off alarmbells.
    I'm pretty sure my unusuals aren't worth that much :)

    So I started to check him on Steamrep and noticed the many reports he already had.
    Meanwhile he continued his attempt in the same way he approached others.

    13:43 - Khad: no, thats not what I said
    13:44 - Khad: or is that an offer?
    13:45 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: yes
    13:45 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: for both usnuual
    13:44 - Khad: you dont even have 1 bud in your bp :-\
    13:45 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: i can get buds
    13:45 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: if you deal
    13:46 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: so deal?
    13:46 - Khad: hmm..... I'm not so sure if I should take this serious
    13:47 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: im serious
    13:47 - Khad: perhaps
    13:48 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: wait 5miuntes
    13:48 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: ill get the buds first
    13:49 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: can i ask a proof before i get the buds?
    13:48 - Khad: no?
    13:50 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: do you have a trusted friend?
    13:49 - Khad: I dont trust anyone :p
    13:50 - Ronise<3[ᶠᵘᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]: can we use your trustred friend to hold your items until i get the buds?

    DING DING DING DING :D

    Anyway, I made a screenshot of the chat.
    Obviously I'm not going to trade this guy but you should mark him for sure. So many attempts... its no coincidence.

    Please give this guy the ban he deserves.​

    This is that type of friend scam. He has many reports against him. Maybe we will be able to get this person tagged before he actually scams someone.
