Scam Report

Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior

What happened? Description:

These two guys tried the middleman scam "service"
I noticed that one guy is already banned on steamrep but this other guy, suicide christ, isn't.

The first guy, ColAps, added me to trade my unusual taunt and he said that he needed a "middleman" to be sure that the trade will be safe. I've experienced already that but i wanted a chat log just to report the other guy, suicide christ because he hasn't got any steam rep bans.​

And i already knew that the middleman thing is a scamming method. I thought that i should have reported the second guy too so i let them do that scam to have some proofs.
