    This guy scamed my Risen and HL2 gifts for non working HIB5&6 keys.. He traded the keys with another guy earlier and as an excuse he said I can use the DRM-Free games..

    We agreed to make a trade on SteamGameSwap subreddit and heres the post link: http://www.reddit.com/r/SteamGameSw...ta2_tradable_invite_humble_indie_bundle_56_w/

    While it was wrong for him to do that, it was a bad idea for you to trade for game keys in the first place. Most communities even have posted in their rules that game keys are strictly forbidden for this exact reason. However this will be looked into more. From what I can see personally though, the guy is attempting to trade the DRM free versions over and over again.

    Don't get me wrong but I'm kinda new into steam trading and so far I had no problem with people from reddit community. I learned something from this and won't happen again. And yeah that guy traded the same key to somebody before did the trade with me..

    Since the Steam keys are part of the package and weren't valid, this would still be considered a scam. All I need is a screenshot of your games licenses.

    I see them in your licenses, how did you end up getting them?

    I've already had HIB 6. All I cared was about 3 games I do not own from HIB V: Amnesia, Psychonauts, Braid (which I still don't own). Figured out it would be easier to acquire them bundled than find them as single copies.
