What happened? Description:

Hello,
I was approached by the user "julian" who was interested in purchasing my flip knife case hardened battled scared blue gem. I had never dealt with the user before, but after checking his profile his rep, his steam id, and everything seemed to be alright, and I believed that I would try to give him a chance. When I used to play CS, two years ago, I was a frequent trader, and I have a good reputation to show for it. I was used to being added to trades and offers, and am a generally very friendly guy to deal with.Skeptically, We discussed various methods of payments, as I did not have PayPal, and when I tried to create an account, I needed 3-5 days for my bank account to be confirmed. I asked if he could E-transfer me the money, but that was not one of the methods he preferred. He wanted my bank account number, but I do not feel comfortable handing out that information, so I did not agree with that method. We then settled on Paysafecard. Thus, we agreed on 100 euros, and the transaction took place.

He claimed " well, we can do it in a safe way, because you're dealing with me, once we trade I will give you code in 30 sec"

I quickly sent him my offer, having confidence in his reputation and hoping he would have the decency to follow through. Once I had steam mobile confirmed the offer, he gave me a false number and immediately blocked and removed me. I was scammed also concerned for future traders who deal with this individual and would prefer this scenario to not happen again. I do apologize for making this mistake, and knowing that there are a lot of scammers out there, but I was hoping maybe things have changed, and sadly I paid the price of trusting scammers. I know you cannot get my item back, but please do something about this user, or maybe wishful thinking he gives it back or you could find a way.

If you could please get back to me, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you for your Time,
Texty​
