    Type of appeal
    SteamRep tag removal/downgrade
    What was your in-game name when you got banned?
    Mang0z
    When did it happen?
    18 April , 2015.
    What's the specified reason?
    Trading with marked/obvious scammers
    Why do you think you should be unbanned?
    So RaaKaa.yU ( RaaKaa.yU brokering's Profile - backpack.tf ) guy added me and told me hes interesting in my Harvest Moon The Voodoo JuJu.
    He looked like a nice guy, even asked him Is it Modest duped.He said yes, there is no reason to lie about that so i didn't want to bother about searching by myself.I quickly looked at his profile and he had a lot of recent reputation ( even from high tier trader like bogleg | DoW ™ Apr17@ 9:06 pm rep+ drives bargain..but good dude. enjoy man.).I did not suspect that he could be a scammer and i feelt safe about trading with him since that guy Bogleg | DoW ™ is well known high tier trader and he just traded with him one day before I did.
    After the trade i even gave him + rep ( which i remove after i found out that he is a scammer ).This trade was not about making a profit,I just thought voodoo juju is bit hard to sell hat so i took his offer although he didn't overpayed ( Harves Moon Voodoo JuJu for Haunted Ghosts ( 125 keys ) for Haunted Ghosts Modest Pile of Hat (80 keys)+ Orbiting Planets Sober Stuntman ( 11 keys ) + Spec Strange Festive Sniper (15 keys)+Pro Crussader kit ( 5 keys)+ Pro Strange Eyelander(4 keys ),Total - 120 keys ).

    I realized that he is a scammer just recently after i accidentally clicked on his Sober Stuntman hat and i saw his name in red colour.I was suprised and didn't want to deal with that hat so I removed it from a game,In the meantime i sold modest so I couldn't do anything about it. (There was not his name in history of this hat,probably cause hat is duped so I still didn't know the truth ).

    I have no reason to purposely do that because i don't support scammers and getting banned on Outpost or any other trading website limits my trading abilities.I know that I have to check everyone with who i trade which i usually do but that guy fools me with all his recent reputation(especially from that bogleg | DoW ™ guy) so i didn' want to bother going on outpost to check.
    Also i noticed,the day when i got ban,same scammer added me again which ofcourse i blocked him.Is it possible that he is doing this purposely and that i was even reported by him cause i refused to deal with him?


    I really think that this is unfair to me, who almost always checks before trading with people,I mean I made a mistake not checking him but the circumstances were such that I had no doubt since i saw good amount of recent positive reputation on his profile.Please take this facts into consideration and remove my caution tag.


    Regards

    As stated above and in the report against you, you are able to appeal your tag after 3 months.
    Please sit out the time and then remake your appeal.
