This user is selling keys from Bohemia Interactive Store using stolen credit cards. Some users have contacted BIS Support and been informed that their key is legitimate at the time of request whereas of today I have been informed by BIS Support that the key I purchased on 10th October was purchased using a stolen credit card and will be deactivated. (BIS Support Reply 001+002 and Arma 3 Trade 001 + 002) Attached is the screenshots of a conversation I had with the scammer concerning the deactivation of the Arma 3 key and also with BIS Support to confirm a second time again that it was indeed purchased with a stolen credit card and to inform them of the conversation I had just had with the scammer. (Arma3 Trade 003) Also beware that this user added a card to the trade which I did not question, a possible and successful attempt to avoid scam claims, though as I had a proof of purchase of the CSGO skin I gave him and a screenshot of the trade chat I hoped this could not effect me but steam support informed me that the trade would not be reversed as I had confirmed what was being traded. (MP9 Bulldozer Factory New vs Arma 3 Trade) UPDATE: 10/12/2013 I removed the user on the 8th as I had not heard from them in some time and from the account activity it seemed that they had gone to ground but no less than 24 hours later they added me citing that they had resolved the issues with BIS Support and was given a new key. I immediately sent the key to BIS Support who informed me that morning that the key was bought via a fraudulent transaction. (BIS Support 003 and Arma 3 Trade 004) I had an exchange of words later with him and he cited that he bought the keys not from BIS Store which was his original story but from this site which I do not recommend for anyone to open. This is a link given by a scammer. (Arma 3 Trade Argue 001+002) http://www.plati.ru/asp/index.asp

The Arma 3 Trade Argue screens are what this guys is using to claim I'm a scammer on steamtrades.com. Very compelling stuff he's arguing.
I'm now having to deal with this guy leaving me negative rep and calling me the scammer, he's using the Arma 3 Trade Argue screens as his point of reference that I somehow scammed him. Very compelling argument.
Our current investigative policy does not cover this type of scam http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/notice-changes-to-investigation-policy.47952/
