[Dundo Maroje]

If there is evidnece of the scammer not giving you the money after he promised and he takes the skin does he still get banned?

[Dundo Maroje]

So tehnically unbanable

what if i have screenshots

They can serve as a reminder the next time you want to get scammed in the oldest way imaginable by performing an under-the-table trade.

You have screenshots proving that you gave away your stuff. What you do outside of Steam is not Valve's problem.

Steam chats

Not a trade window.
Not a trade.
You gifted your items.

Then all you can do is report the user via their profile but there's not much Valve can do in regards to external evidence and they certainly don't ban users on probabilities.

You can keep pulling new tricks out of your pocket in hopes that it'll net you a positive response if it makes you happy. The only thing Steam can confirm is your confirmation on the trade window that you were gifting the item to the other person. Steam handled that transaction successfully for you. Everything else is immaterial.

Non of Valves concern, you've traded outside the platform.

In fact, you are violating the SSA when you sell items for real money.

We traded on steam, like he hmu asked if i was selling i said yes he said i need to go first and i went he said he will send the money via paypal. And he never sent it

You attempted a trade involve real world money. That is do at your own risk.

... can be fake.

Face it, there's no safety net. There's no isurance. If you insist on taking a risk by trading outside the trading system, the risk's yours. No matter how much wishful thinking you pour in, no matter how much bargaining you do with forum folk, THE RISK IS YOURS!

But the scam help says that if there is evidence steam support will ban him and this is a scam listed on tjere

That is evidence on steams backend, not random pictures made by you.

You tried to game the system and lost. Take it as a lesson and don't repeat it in the future.

There's evidence that you confirmed you want to gift that thing. That's the evidence there is. Everything else can be manipulated.

There is no evidence that Valve can act upon. All you can do is file a report that will be logged and that will likely be it. The 'scammer' could turn around and say you are trying to get them banned so you can get your item back and keep the money.

Had you used the protected window, it is impossible to scam or be scammed. Valve only view evidence that is contained within this platform and you have nothing conclusive because you then reverted to PayPal.

You broke the rules. Doesn't mean you'll get help just because someone else broke them harder. The other person used your greed to trick you into giving away your stuff.
