    What happened? Description:
    He added me from backpack.tf to trade for my unusual and he said he wanted to use a middleman even tho we were not trading with cash. This made me question why he wanted to use a middleman and he gave the reason of high tier traders do this so I told him its only when they trade in cash. This caused him to change his offer from Pure in keys to offering cash for it. Then I called him out and he instantly blocked me.​

    Provide Evidence:

    23:30 - Rem: Hello
    23:30 - Sark237: Hey

    23:30 - Rem: yeah
    23:30 - Sark237: how much?
    23:31 - Rem: 25 keys pure
    23:31 - Sark237: alright
    23:31 - Sark237: but could I send for a middle man?
    23:31 - Rem: Why would we need for a middleman
    23:31 - Rem: its a 1:1 without money involved
    23:31 - Sark237: I just feel safer with middle men and then no chance of steam messing up
    23:31 - Sark237: how aobut if I do $50 instead of the 25 keys?
    23:32 - Rem: C'mon atleast try convince me that the middleman is worth it rather than making it seem like steam will mess up with the trade
    23:32 - Sark237: nvm I will jusst use 25 keys
    23:32 - Sark237: and a middle man
    23:32 - Sark237: I sent for 1
    23:33 - Rem: Can you atleast convince me that it is worth a middle man
    23:33 - Rem: i want to be interested by scams nor bored by them

    I see nothing scam related there - just cause you don't agree with their method of trade doesn't mean they are scamming.
    Also your screenshot is wayyy too cropped - don't crop them in the future - full screens only.
