What happened? Description:

This user tried the old "Give me the name of your friend so I can contact him and he can middleman" routine, which doesn't even make sense on the ground that he wanted to check to see if my unusual was duped. Really, how is that going to help?

JOHN IS REAL: hey
Thunder Volts: Hello, cna I help you?
Thunder Volts: can*
JOHN IS REAL: how much for your unusual hat?
Thunder Volts: 35 Keys Pure or Offers involving a Clean Max's Head, or Unusual offers over 42 Keys.
JOHN IS REAL: I can do 35 keyts pure
JOHN IS REAL: deal
JOHN IS REAL: but canj we check one thing first?
Thunder Volts: Yeah, sure. What would that be?
JOHN IS REAL: I wanted to make sure your hat wont appaer to be duped after traded
Thunder Volts: Okay, just go to backpack.tf and type "thundervolts" in the search box
JOHN IS REAL: done checking history
Thunder Volts: Look for the hat in my bp
JOHN IS REAL: do you have a perosnal friend whos online atm?
Thunder Volts: Ohohohoho
Thunder Volts: I know your deal.
Thunder Volts: You're going to pose as my friend and try to use a "middleman". GG
Thunder Volts: If you want to ACTUALLY buy my CLEAN hat, you can.
Thunder Volts: I'm not doing any tricks.
Thunder Volts: I can link to the proof it's not duped.
Thunder Volts: If you need more than that, I can't help you.
Thunder Volts: Are you still interested? Or did I just shut down a scam attempt and you want nothing more to do with the trade?
Thunder Volts: Not sure if you're even trying to actually trade me anyore, but if you want proof that it's not duped, here it is:
