    What happened? Description:
    First came to me to buy my unusual from marketplace.tf i had made a profile and put the hat but for some reason he was insistant on "not wasting his time" and "just having a profile in a shady site https://info-skins.net/ where the steam sign in is Right in your face and is not a properway to sign in requiring a password.

    I would like to point out that he has No tf2 items as shown in his bp.tf profile and his account was made blindingly recently.​

    Provide Evidence:
    No Transaction was made ( thank god )
    But the chatlog is there as well as the screenshot.

    This was Clearly an Attempt.​
