Please keep in mind this is a copy and paste of a report I sent to steams support about last week but... i never got a reply so I decided to go to you guys and show you my case. Hopefully something can be done. I know it may have been an obvious scam to you all now but I am rather new to trading on steam and new to steam and general. too trusting in the humanity simply screws you over. 1 Message by you on Sun, 25th Nov 2012 12:28 pm Hey I'm really sorry to bother, but I just literally got scammed nearly minutes ago. And I just wanted to report the person and have his steam AND his paypal account banned so this person wont scam others ither and maybe somehow you could help me get the keys i paid for or at the least have my money returned (including fees; was only 5 cents anyways). please if you can, help me with this it may not be alot of money to you but every dollar counts to me nowadays. http://steamcommunity.com/id/cheatERR/ This is his/her steam url [email protected] This is the scammer's paypal email. The story is basically i had a friend request from this random person asking if I was buying keys, so i replied from a simple yes because i posted on tf2outpost trades that i was buying keys and refined metals for a rather cheap price. http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/6353254 I stupidly sent her the money.... and as soon as it was done she ended the trade and unfriended as you can tell and then for some reason it wont let me add her i also took a bunch of screen shots after and during my transaction and the chats for proof if needed ****This is the conversation i copied and pasted*** Never tell your password to anyone.

that is the only evidence of my scam i believe i have but if you need evidence that i never actually received the keys well.. only proof i have is me having to spend time making a scam post for this matter..
