    Descriptions (with screenshots):

    I have met a scammer (a friend at first) who said he wanted to borrow my unusual hat and return me shortly after. But fail to return in the end.
    More details are as follows:
    Item: Unusual Samur-eye Level 94 Orbiting Fire (Original ID: 665168174; Current ID: 822616528)

    On the 21 May 2012, we had a pretty decent trading of hats in the afternoon (around 2pm GMT+0800). However, at around 4+ pm (GMT +0800), this person traded me and said he wanted to try out the hi five taunt. Thinking that he is a very nice person, I've kindly allowed him to try that out. The conversation can be seen as follows:
    ------------------------

    Mickey: Trade and talk with me in chat! 16:03:47
    B> KEYS {F22} midnightclub2: i trust you 16:03:49
    ---------------------
    However, shortly after, he returned the hi five and pestered me to let him borrow the unusual hat. I trusted him and traded him the unusual (while he returned my hi five back) as can be seen from this image of my inventory history (http://www.imagebam.com/image/336889191349175)
    After that, I wanted it back and he just ignored me, deleted me, and blocked me. D:
    Close to 5pm, I've decided to contact his friends (a very friendly guy who offered his help kindly http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197964524514/).
    The chat with him can be found here (part 1 -- http://www.imagebam.com/image/7d31be191349176; part 2 -- http://www.imagebam.com/image/f7a721191349181)
    Basically, I've asked him to talk to that guy and below are snippets that he kindly copied from their chat:
    --------------------------
    omg is me who me!: -_- I'll take care of it always this always kids mate!
    omg is me who me!: Always!
    stetsons are cool: alright, I do hope things get taken care of, though its none of my business.
    omg is me who me!: Alrighty
    -----------------------------
    omg is me who me!: http://steamcommunity.com/id/MickeyOGamer/inventory/#440_2_851106033
    http://steamcommunity.com/id/MickeyOGamer/inventory/#440_2_851106033
    omg is me who me!: How much is this worth
    omg is me who me!: i got that
    stetsons are cool: id have to check.... i dont know unusual prices.
    stetsons are cool: how did you even get that
    stetsons are cool: what effect is it?
    omg is me who me!: oh sry
    omg is me who me!: Oh from my sponsors told ya!
    omg is me who me!: on june 11th more coming!
    stetsons are cool: whats the unusuall effect?
    omg is me who me!: click it idk
    omg is me who me!: oh fire
    ---------------------------
    stetsons are cool: ℬ> KEYS {F22} midnightclub2: can u tell him "i dont really want to complicate matters too much, especially to bring up the matter to valve"
    stetsons are cool: also he wants me to invite you to a group chat -_- I'd REALLY like to stay out of this but it seems im going to be dragged in. Please take care of this.
    TF2|Stay|True: alright ignore it buddy
    TF2|Stay|True: kids
    TF2|Stay|True: buy stuff ad want back
    TF2|Stay|True: brb
    TF2|Stay|True is now Offline.
    ----------------------------------------
    So, the scammer did not return the hat to me :(
    And he is going around scamming people about his 'sponsors' 'on june 11th'

    I really hope you could help me out here and return the hat to me because I earned it purely through my hard work of trading as regularly as I can. I hope you could help me out and replace the hat for me. Thank you very much!

    Unfortunately, I don't have the power to reverse trades- only Valve can do that. I recommend you also report this at http://support.steampowered.com

    Marking him as a scammer now, however. Thank you for the report and I am sorry for your loss. :(
