It's possible that he had a banking problem or got the gift from another person himself. But yeah, this is why you should be super careful about trading giftables. If they become revoked Steam will lock down your account for investigation. That never happens with anything you get via Trade Window.
the game was tradable.. i have traded it for trade window!
he say ''he's frind give to he'' he have locked he's account too.. but he never come to online.
Strange then. A bad tradable usually just disappears with a notice but no lock. Was it a one-sided trade maybe? Did you put anything of yours in the Trade Window when you got this?
no i traded with he a CDKEY. he go first with the game.
i have traded with he many times and i never get a problem.. but in the last trade get this.. i will waiting for he come to online and talk.. but he never come online :|
Okay, that explains it. When Valve locks accounts for investigation they are looking for the scammers passing their gifts off to accomplices or alts. Since there was no "trade" from their point of view but only a game being passed free from one account to another you got flagged. Not much you can do but let Steam Support take you through account ownership verification process now. It could take a week to a month, because they are slow as fuck. You won't get what you lost back. Sorry.
Actually even if the guy decides to compensate you he won't be able to since you can't trade anymore. And his account is probably locked too now.
i know.. it's not important to get it again. i only want unlock my account for make more trades :| and i know steam support are very slow so i think 1 month for make a new trades with my account e.e
To speed it up a bit, add personal credit card info used to make purchases on your account (just the name on the card and last 4 digits) to your Steam Support ticket. If you have retail box CD keys activated on your account and still have the box, make a photo of the box showing the CD key and a piece of paper with your ticket number in the same picture and attach that to the ticket too. Good luck!
thanks man! i have my card :P and i have my all number orders in my email too :P
i traded with him, he is not a scammer, he only had a problem with his bank and changed it, that's why.
this guy give me a revoked game.
