The user is "batept", he has 25 positive reps and I trusted him but well... it seems he prefers being a scammer before an honest trader.

How can I contact him? At least for listen to a response from his part. The thread is this:

Did he add you as a friend on steam or did you? Did you check if his profile on Steamtrades is the one you added on Steam?

You probably dealt with his impersonator. Can you link the account of the guy you traded with?

That's the problem, he added me and I don't think it's the same because i can see the profile of "batept" (the original), and the guy who added me had it in private mode. I'm sorry for the real one because I didn't want to difamate him or something, just let people know that some guy with his same name is trying to scam people here.

Fuck, I know what happened. Some guy impersonate this one by using his picture and name, making me believe that it was him. "Batept" is offline since almost a day and I can see his profile, thing that I wasn't allowed with the other prick. Sorry to this guy, I'm sure it wasn't him with other account or something.

Yea. Well, you've learned it the hard way. Be more careful in the future. Always compare the profiles you are adding with ones on Steamtrades, and be suspicious of private profiles and new accounts.

You should probably remove the -neg rep from that guy too, since he obviously is not a scammer.

You're right, I trusted too early before checking those two. I already removed the -rep, thanks all for the advices.

No problem at all, I'm the one who should apologize with you before knowing all of this. It was my second trade here so I was too naive to think that these kind of things could happen. Yes, the profile is this: "http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198066286562/". It seems like a ghost account so I don't know if you could do something with it but well, anything helps. Thanks and sorry for the bad moment too.

EDIT: I checked his profile on Steamrep and voilá, he's already marked as a Scammer. Well, all happens for a reason.
