What happened? Description:

I was selling an unusual through backpack.tf when the accused user added me as a friend. I assumed it was an offer for the unusual and accepted. He offered a strange festive rocket launcher (24-25 keys according to backpack.tf) for my unusual + a strange grenade launcher skin. I agreed, thinking it was a good trade, but kept in mind the scam I already knew about for festivized weapons being used to scam people thinking they were getting festive weapons, a far more valuable variant of a weapon. The user sent me a request with a strange festivized rocket launcher in an attempt to scam me, but I avoided accepting because I knew better. He had renamed it to "Merry x-mas!", most likely an attempt to hide the name of the rocket launcher showing it was festivized not festive. Once I called him out for it in messages, he instantly unfriended me and revoked the trade.​
