Instantly took the price I offered him. Had the keys in the trade, ready to send, when i get the code and attempt to use it. The first code was missing a digit for a normal code. He send me the revised code, which did not work either. As soon as he realized his card that he "just bought" didn't work and I wasn't gonna give him my keys, he removed me. Screenshot of the chat is posted with this thread.
Thank you for making this post. The matter is being looked at. On a personal note though, I would suggest not doing trades that involve real world items in the future. They are always to risky.
I have done 2 at this point, both went smoothly. I do realize there is some risk, especially when the registered middlemen won't even risk it. I try to be as careful as possible, but it's not always super safe.
