What happened? Description:

This guy has the name of a respected TF2 trader, and attempted to trade with me. He linked the inventory of the actual Tobby telling me to pick what I wanted. He then attempted to set up a middle man trade, claiming that the middle man was a Steam employee.

Pretty self-explanatory from the screen shots​
