    Hello all! My name is Scallop, a new player to TF2. Recently I have began trading and built up a good stash of items but since I was new I was a target for scamming. When I was trading with Hooligan, his username is in the title, he tricked me and I gave him:
    The Rainblower
    , ​
    Frontier Justice
    , ​
    The Huntsman
    , ​
    Jarate
    , ​
    The Southern Hospitality
    , ​
    The Dalokohs Bar
    , ​
    The Bazaar Bargain
    ,​
    The Quick-Fix
    , ​
    The Short Circuit
    , ​
    The Market Gardener
    , ​
    The Liberty Launcher

    I gave him all that for a babyfaces blaster which he told me was one of the best weapons in the game.

    The Koala Compact
    , ​
    Strange Part: Revenge Kills for
    5 Crowns​

    and 4 refined metal for a strange shortstop​

    I was told that I was scammed by some other players on the server and he left me with hardly anything please help​

    Sorry man--- you may have gotten sharked by someone rather than scammed. While that makes the user a rotten trader that I wouldn't give the time of day to, it isn't a scam since you agreed to the trade based on your preference. :(

    SteamRep doesn't handle reports of sharking or bad trades-- we only handle scams where both parties agree on a trade but one party doesn't deliver his side. Disagreements about value for a trade is not what SteamRep handles.

    I wish you the best of luck rebuilding your collection, and sorry that jerk persuaded you to trade items below their value. Never ever trust the buyer/seller on their own values-- you need to independently confirm with friends, tools, and admins if you're unsure of value.
