    This guy added me out of the blue about a week after I unboxed my first unusual: a sunbeams sola topi, from a scorched crate. He was real chummy and asked me if I wanted to trade anything, particularly any sniper hats. The unusual was my only sniper-exclusive hat, which tipped me off that he was up to no good. I decided to play along, pretending I was just some stupid kid.

    At no point did he offer me any unusuals for it, instead offering regular hats, misc. items, and keys. This unusual is worth about 3 buds, but his highest offer was ten keys and two regular hats. He even claimed he would give me paint that would make all the hats into sunbeams unusuals.

    After tugging him around a bit, painting myself as a naive little kid with too much pocket money, I told him I had to go to bed right away, for fear of my mother (lol), dropping to offline mode and blocking him. He managed to get no items from me.

    Here are all the screenshots I took of the chat (I copypasted them all together into one picture): http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/9240/menacingmoss.png

    I didn't take screenshots of the trade windows. The first one closed due to an error, but I copied all the text from the second one. The full transcript is below, minus the chat from the first trade window, which was lost.

    Code:
    Eupath: ?
    MenacingMoss: hi :D
    Eupath: hi

    Eupath: pyro or heavy
    MenacingMoss: ooo you wanna trade ?
    Eupath: for what?
    MenacingMoss: what ever :D
    MenacingMoss: just show me orsomething
     
    -- We opened a trade window at this point. He expressed interest in any sniper hats I might have, and I told him I had only one sniper hat, but a server error closed the trade window. --

    I sincerely hope this jerk gets flagged. Who knows how many people he tried to scam before me.

    Hey, thanks for the report.

    Unfortunately we don't mark people for being sharks as it does not constitute an actual scam.
