Link to scammer's Sythe profile: http://www.sythe.org/member.php?u=248807
Briefly explain the trade: I posted on a thread posted by a user offering steam gifts for 10 dollars per. Dirtycolo then proceeded to contact me and offered to gift L4D2 to my Steam account for 10 dollars.
How they scammed: I sent the payment of 10 dollars to the PayPal account that he provided. He logged off immediately and I have not been gifted the game.
Proof that you were not talking to an impostor: He posts his email account that he uses for MSN in this thread: http://www.sythe.org/showthread.php?t=818326 This is the email that dirtycolo was using while I was talking to him.
