    Description:
    First three screenshots were taken by me. The others are of my friends conversation with the scammer.
    Although this is a game key/activation code scam, the scammer did not provide me with a key at all and simply went offline so
    it shouldn't be too hard to verify.
    He approached me on the playdota forums asking to trade my copy of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood for some steam games.
    As I am relatively new to trading, I was unaware of the common game key scams. He told me to go first since he had
    more rep than me (on his steam profile). After trading over Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood he pretended to look for the
    key but blocked and deleted me instead.
    I asked a friend to add him and help me look into the matter. At first Starko Enzi denied having any knowledge of the trade but
    started saying that he received the gift instead, when my friend questioned him further. Starko Enzi then asked for evidence, which my friend
    provides, but then provided photoshopped screenshots in return (which he admited at the end of the conversation). After this, he also
    deleted my friend and set his profile to friends only.
    While talking with my friend, I noticed that he added a friend named "fatsteveliveburgers" which could either be an alt or another victim.

    Upon further searching, I have found multiple reports of shadowkillz (Starko Enzi) scamming people, from other members of the playdota forum.
