Hi I have traded 4 TF2 keys for a copy of csgo with this guy: http://www.steamtrades.com/user/kishkashta1
I have sent the game as gift to a friend, his game just got revoked, what should I do? Trade was done on steam.

If your friend gave you something for CSGO on Windows trade, he can get that back opening a ticket on steam support.

So you can report the scammer on steam/Steamrep, but can not have back your Keys.

Please someone warn steam so they make this more apparent to all traders and hopefully not many more people will get scammed like I did.

Why they should? You had no loss due to the revoked item. You already traded it, and got something else for it from trade.

What I mean is: only who had a game revoked (on his library/inventory) can get from Steam support what he traded (on Windows trade) to get it.

Talk to the trader and tell him to give you the keys back if he doesn't take all screenshots you can and report him on steamtrades so they ban him there.
