Your English is fine. I would recommend you to go to SteamRep and make a thread (with screenshots of the conversations) on the forums to get both of these guys marked as scammers.

This is the wrong site to ask and you shouldn't ask people to go threaten this guy. Report it to steam rep and talk to some trading folk to see if there's a way to get your items back.

This happens too often. Enigma should open a new forum for e-thugs to handle these requests. Charging for their services might be enough to replace the ads.

teamfortress.tv isn't the trading police. Most people here don't give a fuck about trading. Also those items aren't even that valuable. It sucks you were scammed but move on.

This happened yesterday, they both told me that the middleman's little brother "Jack" was trolling him.

This is worth nothing, maybe like a dollar. Make a report to steam support. The guy clearly failed at scamming if he thinks this is anything worth scamming. He's already been on probation next ban is perma.

As an admin on an Unusual trading server, there's not really much that can be done in this situation.

What you CAN do is report him on www.steamrep.com with the information that you have. Chat logs would be helpful in this situation as well. TeamFortress.TV is not a trading community website, it's a competitive TF2 community.

To be honest, the value of the items aren't worth that much, with the majority of them able to be bought for only small amounts of metal.

EDIT: also, next time you do a trade for PayPal, use steamrep to check his reputation, and use a middleman that is an admin/trusted middleman listed on steamrep. There will be impersonators out there, so double check their profiles on steamrep to make sure that they are who they say they are.

Every time another one of these threads pops up it only makes it more clear that crumpet was right.

Every 14 year old that gets scammed makes a thread here asking for us to threaten someone's family or some shit.
