Steamtrades stolen key

Write a report to SteamRep with proof.

Support

I highly doubt you'll get the game back, you'll never see that key again. :(

This is why you should "almost" never trade keys unless it's with a very well known, trusted trader.

You should also file a report on Steamrep.com. (Post the report here once you've filled it out so no one else get's scammed by this person)

Sucks dude, just contact the support... though you won't get your game back :|

Nothing you can do. Steam won't do anything because nothing happened as far as they are concerned.

I'm so sorry dude... :(

It is not true that steam support will not do anything in cases like these.

I once was scammed the same way, I went first in sending my key and never received anything for it. The game was immediately activated on the persons account and I was blocked from him. I contacted support, explained what had happened and even sent them an screenshot with the entire chat log and from my gamersgate inventory showing the key.

It didn't even take 24 hours until I got an answer from support letting me know that the key was available again and appropriate measures where taken against the person who scammed me. I activated the key myself (it was a game I didn't really want) before the person had any chance to activate it himself again or before he could forward it to anyone else. But I'd rather have the game sitting on my account unused then anyone having it that scammed me over it.

As you see, there is actually a slight chance that steam support might due something. Don't give up your hopes.

Edit: The person who scammed me even got banned from steam for a longer period, I found that out from a shared steam friend.

That sucks mate, atleast make sure he gets a special SteamRep badge so other people will be warned.

Thank for that, all of yours! I don't give up hoping! Thank you for all!

Complain to Amazon that the key doesn't work.

Amazon arrange cancellation of the Steam key.

Amazon re-issue a new one.

Job's a good 'un.

find his address, I'll bring my golf clubs

Sorry buddy, steamtrades is full of scammers, my tip is: IF YOU HAVE A KEY, NEVER GO FIRST WITH SOMEONE WITH LESS REP THAN YOU

Tbh it's your own fault, you should know the dangers of trading CD keys in general

It's really not Steam supports nor Amazon's fault that you made this mistake, you'll just have to deal with it.

It's not like you brought Metro 2033 with full price anyway

Put their id on a blacklist and make a personal blacklist or update a blacklist for all to see

Also when trading it is best to check 3 things 1. if their steam account is private or not 2. they have over 100 games the more games they have the easier it is to trust them (though not 100% true also never trade anyone with under 25 games ever!!) 3. Check for scammers using another persons rep, do not click a reply in someone elses thread, chat with the original poster/trade directly

forget it

These are just stupid ass kids they wont lern unless you punch them hard in the face, godammit i soo want to punch kid now, stupid scammers.

Anyway always dont trade if you are drunk, look if the dude have muuch rep not reported on steamrep, ask him to give you link to steamtrades profile check if thats really him, blablabal check if you can comment on his profile, also paste his id on steamrep forum cause much people are not marked as scammers but they are on forum

Most you can do is get the key revoked. Steam wont bother with anything else. File your report with Steamrep and thats about it.

wasent really stolen now was it? sorry to hear though. there are some good suggestions on the other comments, like trying to get the key revoked or something. good luck, death to all scamming bastards!
