    It great that you are taking the initiative to crack down on scammers, but I am just as much of a victim as you were. When I searched for Fluffy the Penguin this account showed up and it looked legitimate and real, so I thought he could middle man for us. At the time I did not know how to check the steam ID and I thought it was Fluffy the Penguin because everything else matched up. I am sorry for the confusion that this may has caused, I am not a scammer, I am a trustworthy and safe trader.
