    What happened? Description:
    I was stupid, I chose to believe in the good of people for once, and the one time I do it, I get scammed. He added me on steam after having seen that I "had some game codes for sale". Or, that was what he was hiding behind. He wanted to trade his $20 Steam coupon code for one of my games. (Crysis 2 Max edition)

    He wrote me about the game, and what he had to offer and then "suddenly" saw that I had some interesting (semi-expensive) Counter Strike Global Offensive weapon-skins in my inventory and wanted some of those in a potential deal. I said that I was going to need more than $20 because my game alone was worth around that, so we ended up agreeing to both his $20 coupons, so $40 for three of my games, and a couple weapon skins.

    Long story short: We (somehow) agreed that it would be most fair to start out with the least valuable thing to trade, the weapon skins, with a value of around $10 and then he would send me the code (which he had sent me screenshots of beforehand - to prove that he even had the coupons) - and then we'd go on with the games for the other $20 coupon code. There wasn't really any other way to do it to be fair to us both, and so I chose to believe him, since I've done deals like this many times before, although being on the other side of it, having to go second in the trades.

    But yeah, I gave him the skins and when I looked back on steam he had removed me as friend. The one time I those to believe in fairness :) awesome. Could have gone worse if I had gone first with the game codes though, which I after all, didn't do.​
