Well i just got scammed for around $100 worth of games

He offered me Gift Master Card worth $100 for the games, which were enough with the sales of these games. I asked him how he added me because he has low amount of games to get a sg account. He told me that a friend told him about me selling games, he also made a huge story that he got this gift card for this birthday and his parents has setup a parental lock so he cant use the card on other websites, he gave me code for prepaid master card and i check every thing was working fine , the card indeed had balance of $100, so i sent him games.

I was really tired and it was late night then so i didn't used the card, but i woke up now and saw that all the balance in the card has been used up (only 0.68cents left) and he also deleted me from friend list and probably never gona add again, His personal information is mentioned on the card but i think its fake.

I know i made a foolish mistake and lost my money, but i want you guys for heads up never add a person for trade if they don`t have proper steamgifts profile & rep and offer you gift cards. It was probably a alt account and his real account is somwehere on steamgifts but i dont know which one. My trade link was http://www.steamgifts.com/trade/xI7p7/h-killing-floor-2-rust-ds2-divinity-os-lfd2-war-hammer-others-inside-w-tf2csgo-keys

I have edited the post due to steamgift rules, I have reported him on steamrep and i hope this will help other people from getting scammed by same method.
