    Description: Fakker posted into Traders guild chat that he was paying 5 euro steam wallet (5 euros in games) for fallout 3 GOTY. I sent him a message saying if he added his 3 genuine hats I'd do the trade. He accepted. I got the game and he left the group chat. I added him and posted on his wall saying I got his game and spent the money. He removed the comment and blocked me and ignored my friend request. Now I am out $5.

    Just for clarification - you stated that "I got the game and he left the group chat." Does this mean that you bought the game and now have it in your inventory so you are stuck with it as a result of his deception?

    He left the trade group, yes. But after writing this report I found out I hadn't hit the second purchase confirmation. So I still had my $5. I thought i updated my post, guess not. But either way it was an attempted scam/way to make someone waste their money. The evidence should suffice.

    I will mark this as ready for review and see if administrators feel this is enough evidence to merit a scam tag. Worst case scenario would be that you purchased the game and had to find another buyer.

    Technically not a scam. Dick move, but not a scam.
