Well heres the story. I was in the fm and someone was buying steeelys for 7.7m. I offered up the steelies and then he offered up the money clicked accept then cancel really fast. The trade was cancelled. SO then i thought, well if i get ready to click accept faster than he can cancel, maybe i would succeed. I tried that and it said trade unsuccesful. The third time i traded him, wondered why he kept accepting my trade. When i traded him, out of my own stupidity, i offered the steelies and then clicked accept. Ya i know, that was the biggest blunder ever and im an idiot. I finally realized that this was a smart scam so i retraded him and threatened to reoprt him and made false statements like " my bro is a gm" blah blah. Then he said, "SO, im a GM". Obviously i didnt belive him but his guild name was like gmclan or something and the way he acted was like a GM. I mean he clicked cancel so fast, i could barely see that he accepted first. Either that or he scam hacks or something. I know im an idiot for getting scammed,but i dont really care about 1 set of steelies so w/e.

Well, you were stupid for falling for the scam. But now you can nail him for impersonating a GM.

The Trick was, if he canels it a lot hes trying to trick your brain getting you mad and trade quickly so he can scam you. If you see people like that don't trade them.

You must be stupid. Sorry, but it's the truth. or Your greed was strong and you wanted that deal, although you knew that it was a scam. So, you tried to scam the scammer.

You fell for the most common/oldest scams. That's pretty funny. By the way, reporting only works if they do it again and again. If they only did it once to you, the GMs won't be able to catch him.
