    I was playing on Saign.de server when he initiated a trade with me and asked me if I had any keys.
    When I replied in the affirmative, and asked him how much would he pay to me? I said he would pay in items. I asked him to show him the items and he just added 3 weapons and a crate and then I understood that he was trying to scam me.
    I asked him about the Scotsman SKullcutter that it looked good and how much it cost. He told me to offer. Just to check again, I added a strange stickybomb launcher, persian persuader and an enforcer and asked him if it was enough, he replied that if I could add more. I said that I liked my strange rocket launcher and couldn't trade it. The he indicated that he was ready to trade. I delayed him to get the screenshot but by the time I pasted it and before I could copy the actual text, my TF2 crashed. So I have just this screenshot as proof of the scamming.

    Sorry for the multiple screenshots. I did not get any notification that the file had been uploaded and so tried to upload multiple times.

    Sorry My tf2 seems to have some problem. I alt tabbed out of TF2 to copy the chat two times. The second time when i tried to Alt Tab in to take the screenshot, TF2 crashed again. The chat was within the trade window itself as he was not on my friend list. Might need to verify my cache as these have been happening since 2-3 days, after the last update.

    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!
