What happened? Description:
The user had an advert on reddit about his backpack. I added him and wanted to buy his backpack. He wanted me to trade my keys to his "friend" and in return he would trade me his items. His account was trade held for 15 days, but his friend wasn't. He initially wanted paypal, but then said he'd accept keys.

I said it would be better to include the keys in the trade, but he did not want to do this. Then I told him I would only trade the keys after the items had gone through in 15 days.

Obviously this user was going to cancel the transaction after I had traded my keys.

His "friend" is called Glek. http://steamcommunity.com/id/Suparoo/

I have attached the chat log.​

Hello,

We classify a scam as a "broken trade agreement", meaning you originally agreed on a trade which was broken by the other party. In this context it is impossible to prove what would have happened had you gone through with the trade, hence we cannot mark for this.

In future, please make sure your screenshots are not cropped (your current screenshots would not have been accepted in their current state).

Thanks for the report nevertheless!
