    and the admin above witnessed everything and know about the whole trade so we called an admin to monitor everything , he got my item then went away then came back and said he will buy it then removed and blocked me and refused to give the item back. I have all the proof in chat of what he said and the trade history too. Adding all screenshots below !!
    please ban this scammer D:​

    Please provide a full screen shot of your Trade Inventory History showing for sure the trade in question(NOT TRADE OFFER!!)- open this with a web browser, move your mouse over the users name in question so it shows up the hypertext popup URL at the bottom of the screen - take the screen shot DO NOT edit it in anyway and upload.
    Also upload that last screenshot on imgur HERE to the report

    The scammer was on a server , he said he knew the admin if it reassures me . So he was on the server and he knew about the trade and that he was borrowing it , he then scammed me and removed and blocked both the admin and me. Admin has banned him on TF2Swap servers and i'll ask him to post here and let you know

    Also why would you trade something to someone without some kinda collateral? That makes no sense to me...

    he wanted to try it with his loadout in game and he was to decide if he is going to buy the item or not and if he liked he was to sell his item and offer me the amount which he currently did not have and as an admin was present on server i thought that guy could be trusted but he just removed both of us and blocked

    SR's goal isn't to ban people..we are here for education


    As with my education note there - see you never do a trade like this without something to hold or getting traded back of equal value/worth to you in case of an issue like this.
    Doesn't matter who was present...you shouldn't have never made a one side trade like this for this purpose.
    I'll wait for the other user to post - also you didn't answer my other question - that screenshot of the chat between the admin and the accused - was that provided to you by the admin?

    Yes the admin provided it to me , the scammer first removed me and when i asked the admin he said that he appeared offline to him as well then he found out that he removed and blocked him as well
    here is my screenshot chat with the admin where he gave me the screenshot

    Sorry i know that but knowing what he did is probably trying to sell the items fast to the bots or the people and get money from them before he gets banned since if one gets steamrep ban most sites dont trade with them and traders refuse it as well, i know it was careless mistake from my side as well trusting someone just because he knew an admin but he just borrowed the item and scammers use some method or the other to scam people , i almost know every method cause scammers keep adding me everyday but i acted really carelessly this time it seems D':

    Ok I think I've seen enough here.. but I stand behind that post that you made a huge mistake and never do one sided trades like that again.
    Should have gotten something to hold on to in the meantime of what you felt was worth similar.
