What happened? Description:

on Feburary 17th, this person,migga, added me on steam, saying that he wanted to offer on my hat... He said that it was a birthday present for his brother and that he wanted to do a cash trade with me... I accepted his request and asked him to go first. He then said that steam was buggy and instead use gmail instead. i listened to him and added him on gmail...However, he said that he was trade banned and that i should add his brother on steam since this is for his brother... Later mis "brother",Steam user by the id of :http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198093431881 then added me on friends list... so i accepted the request, thinking that it was his brother... He then sent me the trade request and asked me to go first. I was reluctant at first, but he sent me a link, http://www.steamtrades.com/user/mariganza/page/3, saying that he was an admin of that page and he had a lot of +Reps. I then believed him and started on the trade. However, as soon as i traded with his brother, he gave me the wrong code and immediately removed me on steam and on gmail.

Here are the evidences for the chat(sorry it was done on google chat as according to him, steam chat wa sbuggy)

my name is keh weh while his is makongas lenkas

I seriously hope you can take this into consideration and i truthfully hope that you can help me to get my hat back...I spent almost half an year on getting that hat
