What was your in-game name when you got banned?

I Kill S> Team Shine Kits ​

When did it happen?

25.03.2015, 10:14 ​

What's the specified reason?

Trading with marked/obvious scammers ​

Why do you think you should be unbanned?

I got a permanent ban from outpost 4 months ago cause i traded 2 times with an hijacker in 2 days.
The guy added me 2 times with differents hacked accounts to trade since i had pure.

1st time i bought a stormy storm team captain if i remeber good.
and 2nd time i bought a low tier robot unusual but i forget wich one.

That was a mistake and it was hard for me to Know if the trader was reliable or no cause the accounts that he used had no special reputation at this moment and i didnt know how to check correctly (items on the inventory, bp history etc).
After that i made an appeal on outpost to explain it was not voluntary, i sent some messages to proof my good intentions but nobody answered me so i forget outpost.

Since im banned from outpost i was very careful in trades to this day that i quicksold my anti-freeze Brainiac to someone in my fiend list : http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198061859081
I honestly thought he was someone clean cause he was in my friend list since a moment, we talked friendly and he offered me pure, so just i didnt think about to check his profile.

When i saw that he was marked as scammer i was really scared but it was already to late.

I made a lot of fair trades with trusted people and when i traded with scammers it was each time mistakes.
Anyway, everything happened too fast and against my sandstone, thats why, even if i cant use outpost i would like an other chance to trade normaly.

Thank you for undersanting and sorry for my bad english.

Best regards ​

 

I'm not sure how you could have done those trades by accident, as I assume by your trades you named that you were an unusual trader, and not an inexperienced one either.

 

Hello,

Sincerely thats was accidental.

Im trading unusuals since a bit more than one year and as i said when i was banned from outpost i didn't know how to check correcly with who i trade.
The only thing that would have allowed me to know that i traded with a bad person was to know how to check the history of the hijacker's backpack to find that he had sold quickly a few Unusuals (that i learned too late). But i know it's my fault, i don't disagree.

When i recently sold my af brainiac, i honesltly completely forgot to check the reliability of the trader cause he was in my fiend list and i didn't know that i had a scammer as "friend". In plus i sold it for less than 180 keys in mixed while the price is closer to 260/300 keys (what i bought it for). Then when i saw that it was marked as scammer i was scared and i asked to him to trade back, even if i knew it was definitely to late.

Conversation with the scammer just after the trade :

"I Kill S> Team Shine Kits: man i dint saw you are banned ...
I Kill S> Team Shine Kits: why you dont told me that
I Kill S> Team Shine Kits: normaly i care each time before to trade
☃Slushy☃|CauldronCrones!: I honestly didnt think of it atm
I Kill S> Team Shine Kits: so if im banned too with that ?
I Kill S> Team Shine Kits: i want to trade back the brainiac man its better
I Kill S> Team Shine Kits: ok ?
☃Slushy☃|CauldronCrones!: It doesnt work like that man
☃Slushy☃|CauldronCrones!: then you would be trading with a scammer a 2nd time...
☃Slushy☃|CauldronCrones!: then no
☃Slushy☃|CauldronCrones!: I cant trade back"

I know its not a good proof but i dont know how to proove it was a mistake.
Anyway it was not in my interest to trade with him so thanks to undertstand that it was not volontary.

Thank you for reading.
