Just got scammed for Karambit - Need help

[Raziel]

So i just got scammed for my Karambit knife.
Where and how can i report them to steam?

if you agreeded to trade it, nothing will be done. If you went to a phishing website and your account for jacked that too is your fault and nothing will be done. If you have screenshots of the scammer or any evidence it would be best to make it known.

Very rarely will a scammed item be reversed because 99% of the time the user gives it of their own free volation after being suckered to a fake website.

its not enough OP, you need pics and or video of the website in question or the trade window during the time of the scam. Otherwise its your word agaisnt the accused scammer.

report it via ticket on the steam website. The chat is still not enough OP, but its a start. You needed pictures of at least the trade window or a fake website to make you claim 100% solid.

i have never felt so bad for anyone on this game. They worked you like melted cheese.

tell us how they scammed you for your karambit cause all i see is some trading talk.

Ok i will tell my whole story.

One guy named Daman posted on ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ a trade for his Karambit Blue Steel MW. I added him and asked him if he would want my Karambit Stained FT and Glock Fade for his knife.
He also had a Bayonet Fade FN and M9 Bayonet Fade FN.

Then he said that he is quitting csgo only to play Dota and offered me any of his knives if I can add one guy on steam that has blocked him (his name is kerpt). He wanted one Dota 2 item that was listed on Steam Market for 170€. It was the only item there. Btw. i never played dota so i didn't know the real value. I don't know it even now (Frozen Face of Delicacies of Butchery).
So, i traded my karambit with kerpt for that Dota item so i can then trade that Dota item with Daman for any of his knives as he said.

When the trade was completed, they deleted me both instantly.. Sigh :/

Please report them

well tbh you got fooled because why would daman trade his knife on csgo lounge if he is quitting csgo because if he is really quitting csgo he would sell all his csgo items on the steam market and not lounge because he would get a csgo item for the knife.

So you both got what you agreed to? Not sure what that DOTA item is worth probably not much but you agreed to it and now that trade is final. Valve warns people to double check trades before making them and they are final. I don't think anything can be done.

[Raziel]

Yeah i know. I was really naive. I have posted this also to help you guys not to get scammed. Never thought it would happen to me. Please report them and learn from my mistakes <3

its okay

[glo]

just so u know . remember somethhing when u trade with people. dont click on their links and check the price listing of the item and not what they say
