What happened? Description:

Suspect imersonating known TF2 Trader Fatman added me, after asking him several times while he was online why did he add me he did NOT respond to it and just went offline and online again several times, after few days of not responding he approaches me saying he wants to trade for my TF2 Keys. He then asks how much am I willing to trade and what would I want from his inventory in exchange ( sending the real Fatman's Backpack.tf link and not his own ) I say Strange professional killstreak australium grenade launcher since it is 22 keys and i am willing to give 17 and I say that item because he wants my Keys and not vice versa so I take Grenade launcher that way as a quicksell. Impersonator then asks me if I know of site Marketplace.tf which I do know of but proceed to tell him that I don't to see what will he tell me in exchange. He then asks me to verify the items on Marketplace.tf so he knows they are 100% tradeable ( most probably he would do the same OPSkins scam but on marketplace.tf) I proceed to tell him I don't want 3rd party sites, but I want a valid Steam trade. He then says that it is not a 3rd party site..... When I say it is "phishy" what he is saying he proceeds to delete me and block me . Please do not trade with this person... This person is not market as a scammer or banned from steamREP so be cautious.​
