What happened? Description:

I went onto a subreddit, asking if anybody had a copy of Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2. He added me on his friends list first, then he contacted me via the chat, he told me that he could give me Darks Souls 2 for 17 keys. He said it was a CD key. I was going to ask him to trade, but he was offline when i got the messages. All of that occurred yesterday morning. I contacted him, asking when we could trade, as I preferred to be online when trading. He was offline for most of that day, and when he was online, he didn't contact me. This morning, he sent me a trade offer with the message:"I MADE A OFFER TO U. SO AFTER U ACCEPT U TALK TO ME AND GET UR GAMES
ACCEPT THIS AND GET UR GAME
I HAVE 3-4 PAGES OF REPUTATION SO U COULD TRUST ON ME "
After accepting the trade offer. I contacted him via Steam chat, asking him for the cd key. He as offline at the time so I waited for him to be online before contacting him again. When I did contact him,, he didn't respond. I kept asking him to give me the CD key for Dark Souls 2. HE then blocked all communications with me and I couldn't contact him, add him to my friend's list, or check the chat.​

​

Due to a backlog of scam reports, and to focus on the ones where items or money were lost, we are freezing the below types of reports. Please report these scam types to our partner communities if they accept them.

• Fakerep reports:
  • Please report to the community where the fakerep is posted.
    • SteamRep does not maintain reputation threads and does not see profile rep as legitimate. These reports are best addressed by the communities that maintain such threads.
• CD Keys/Game Code scam reports:
  • Please report to the community where the trade originated and make a steam support ticket. https://support.steampowered.com/
    • Game keys/codes are impossible to verify as legitimate to begin with or what account the code is redeemed on. Before we only accepted if a user had solid proof, but now are rejecting all such reports.
• Phishing/hijacking account reports:
  • If you are phished/hijacked you need to make a steam support ticket ASAP https://support.steampowered.com/
  • Report phishing attempts to Valve by using the in-profile report system shown below
    • A lot of victims are not traders or even know they are marked on SR. Valve has made improvements to steam that mitigate the potential loss of items caused by phishers/hijackers; the original reason for tagging such users to begin with.
