    @MattDammit You have images embed enabled in steam chat - I can't tell of those links the user gave you because it turns them into images.
    The user didn't scam you but your assuming they would because they said they were a legit middleman.. anyone can say they are one.
    Can you produce the chat logs where the images are not enabled like that so I can see the links?

    See that screenshot - see the IMAGES in steam chat.. you have images embedded enabled - disable that otherwise in the future we can't see the links the user gave you.

    See what I'm saying here? Copy/pasted chat logs are unacceptable..they can be altered to represent something they are not.
    I think I have enough to go off of with that and what you provided but I HIGHLY recommend you disable that in steam chat settings now.
    I'll review this shortly.

    Please don't use 3rd party hosting to embed images here.... ALL evidence must be hosted HERE to the report not IMGUR.
