No.

Why doesn't Steam return scammed items?
Our community assigns an item a value that is at least partially determined by that item's scarcity. If more copies of the item are added to the economy through inventory rollbacks, the value of every other instance of that item would be reduced.

We sympathize with people who fall victim to scams, but we provide enough information on our website and within our trading system to help users make good trading decisions. For more information on this, please see this post on our store blog.

Report, move on.

Report him in his profile and move on. Easy come, easy go.
i've done that but isn't it wrong for a huge trading company to just steal from people? now i know where they get their skins from..

Valve clearly warns you not to use third-party sites for trading, so I'm not sure what you expected.

What specific scams should I be aware of?
Users should always double check the contents of a proposed trade before accepting, even if that means inspecting each item in a multiple-item trade. Be sure to verify the item and its quality before confirming any trade.

There are a number of common scams users may attempt to deceive you out of your items:

Users acting as trade bots - A user impersonating a trade bot(s) tells you that you have to trade them some items. After you've accepted the trade and sent the user the items, they block you on Steam and keep your items.

Thats why you should never believe any other site, than Steam Market only... Even some may be legit, you will find thousands other impersonating their good name and then scamming.

Steam Market is all you need. :helmet2:
