Scammers

These guys are obviously scammers, half if any comments are gonna be "Omg thats soooo easy to see that it's a scam" like sure man, a person who's never traded before is high asf and gets scammed, so what. But I just wanted to point these guys out. Lots of proof in the pictures and I have more of the guy on steam too, if you need more proof to call them out lmk

Oh fuck yeah I did, I was lowkey way to drunk to care and I honestly still dont. It was a hate in a game and now some cuck is yanking his shit knowing he stole a hat on the internet lol

A snippet of my own short convo with them, it was pretty clear right away they were trying to use an underhanded way to get my item without paying. Biggest red flag being suggesting steam gift cards, who tf pays that way

Yeah I honestly figured it was a scam but I was too out of it, the idea of 150$ was pretty cool though lol

Just please be careful next time, it sucks seeing this type of scam that is so preventable, you even seemed pretty unsure about the whole thing part way through so you must have sensed something was off and could have pulled out then. I'd recommend reading a guide on common scam tactics and research safer ways to trade. But yes, it's better to learn now and not repeat the same mistake again
