    Okay, so I go on a server and what do I see? Another one of those scammers that say that they will gift wrap keys for items.

    Exact quote: "im selling 5 giftrapped keys for 5 clean or dirty hats"
    Too good to be true, right? 5 dirty hats? It could be 5 starter pack hats, oh my god! And HIS WRAP!

    I tell him to add me to discuss it. He later tells me that I have to give him the hats first and then he will gift me the keys. He has no wrap or keys, and he explains right after I tell him he's getting reported that he sold the keys already.

    I didnt put myself as the victim because he never successfully scammed me. I also spaced correctly, but it screwed up.

    That's fine, but you were the intended victim, I'm not meaning to be short with you or anything vindictive. Merely did it so the report would be reviewed quickly and the scammer marked more easily.

    Seeing as how it's impossible for keys to be gift wrapped, it's safe to say this was indeed a scam attempt. Thanks for the report. Tagged.
