    Description: I have been trading Unusuals the past few days. My most recent, the one I have now is a Purple Confetti Ol' Snaggletooth. I randomly was on steam just now and I get a message from this person. He says that he was interested in items that I had and wanted to buy/trade for them, and would rather discuss it in the trade (you can see all of that in that screenshots). I did not know this guy, he did not post on any of my Outpost Trades (HE IS a Member Of Outpost and SHOULD be Banned), or Bazaar. He just randomly messaged me, thinking I was a noob and uncrated it and was going to take advantage of me. Shark me. So then in the trade he said, I am mainly interested in your 'Crocodile/Alligator Hat'. He used those words to make it sound like it wasn't anything special, and didn't want me to think it was special, if I was a noob. He said he was mainly interested in that and if I had an offer in mind. Unfortunately I didn't think to take a screenshot because he didn't say any of the noob stuff till after the trade was over. His profile was PRIVATE. So I asked him, can you make it public so I can see if you have anything I want, and he said sure. I looked and I said.. "I dont think you have anything that could afford this." and then he asked what I wanted, i said "1.6 buds" and he said "hmm, I'll have to do some trades. I'll let you know."

    Then the trade ended and he immediately sent me the message 'tbh, i thought you were a noob' . I tried to get him to say he was sharking me, but it was plainly obvious what he was doing, trying to scam me/shark me. I HATE THEM so much because of what happened to me my first day of playing. So, I kept talking to him as if I was just talking, then I laid that bombshell on him in the end :).

    Nothing was lost or traded, but this person needs to be banned on all trading websites and reported as a scammer so no one falls to this guy in the future as much as we can help it.

    SR does not mark for sharking.
