    Description: I was just playing a regular game, and he friends me randomly in the lobby, and he said, "I see that you have 2 keys, they're worth 2 ref, can I buy them?" I was just telling him to wait to stall for time, to get the information ready. The outcome was that he de-friended me and I reported him to Steam-Rep and Steam.

    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: Im not a phisher
    PeteyLeep: You can say that all your want
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: A phisher is where they give u a link to hijack your account
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: a "sharker" is when u attempt to get items at a much lower price than usual
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: so
    PeteyLeep: Well, either way, you're looking for "noob" trader
    PeteyLeep: Sharking is worse.
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: since u sent me a link
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: u are the one that is introubl;e
    PeteyLeep: This trade you made is quite interesting.
    PeteyLeep: http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/14696897
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: Look at that
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: Another link
    PeteyLeep: If a key was worth 2 ref
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: How do i know if u are not phishing me?
    PeteyLeep: because these are you're trades, and you're not downloading anything that I could use to hijack you with.
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: U dont have to always download
    screw^ Microscopic Crumbs: then y are u using the term phishing?
    *I'm sorry, I was only able to get this much of the chat in, the other part is missing, the other part should be in the picture though.*
    Notes: This was my first scammer/sharker, so... hmm... I accidentally call him a phisher, but I find out what that means, so he is not a phisher, he's a sharker I guess.

    Sorry but from the sounds of it, this seems like a sharking report. Steamrep doesn't cover shark reports, though you can try and report him to a community such as MannCo Trading that does.

    Unfortunately this seems to be a shark report, Steamrep doesn't directly ban on these kind of reports but they're appreciated. However I'll have to archive your report due to this.

    I invite you, to report this kind of event into trade servers such as Mann Co trading, who handle them.

    Regardless, thank you for your report!
