What happened? Description:

Guy on my friends list tried to scam me out of the "Hair of the survivor." Said that he was going to transfer steam funds to my account and that it was a hidden feature that valve hid "for the safety of the children." I never did the trade because it was clearly a scam attempt.​

Provide Evidence:

See attached png, note that there is no trade window because the trade was never made.​
