What happened? Description:

So Hand of Midas contacted me after I had my trade on auto-bump on csgolounge.com. He was the first real person that day with a nice inventory and lots of keys. I saw he had a trade ban and did not look at his steam rep, however he told me it was an authentication cool down and he would be able to trade shortly after that. He told me that he wanted me to trade my knife to a friend so he can check to see if it was "bugged." I initially was wary on this because it sounded like the classic scam that happened to many people. He told me he would offer a BF UM BS for my SD Stained FT which was a decent overpay for my hassle. I traded my knife to someone I trusted and that I knew in real life. I sent him the link to her inventory and he checked it, after that the person I traded my knife too said "what do you want me to do in this trade?" (keep in mind shes an inexperienced trader) I immediately said "What?! Cancel it now, don't click anything just cancel the trade, do not click accept." I knew that he was trying to scam me. I check his friends list and see someone that renamed their name to REIGN {SD S FT} which was my name at the time. I traded her and changed my name to something random "corny f✿✿ nerd" and will receive my knife back in 15 days from her. (She just got the steam app to be able to trade me) To sum it up, Midas tried to impersonate me to steal my knife, luckily it was someone I was currently on a Skype call with and was able to get my knife back into the right hands Midas's.​
