So here lately random players have been adding me wanting to trade, sure. I enjoy trading, making a profit is nice, but only when it's done the right way.
After the last few days at least 3 different users have tried to trade scam me, and usually they always sound fishy when they are wanting to 'check to see if my items are clean', after they mention that it really starts to sound scammy. for example, they might want to talk with a steam rep, (a 3rd party trade) to check the items.
Best advice I can give is when they mention having to check if the item is safe, marketable, or duplicated then so far, 100% of the time the trade is bogus, and its best to back away from it.
Even if the trade sounds really good.
Does anyone else have any suggestions on how to prevent trade scams? or any scam in general. I'm sure others would like to hear!
