It's been stated so many times. Figure it out yourself.
Lemonator, Would you kindly explain to me what happened, whos items were taken and what happened

I wasn't attempting to come off as the hole of an anus, but, I can't help but feel like this is some manner of cosmic karma only lain upon your family members rather than you yourself.
That or bad luck.

I bought some minecraft alpha account from some guy who was selling it, and bought it for my brother, I was playing on my server that I just bought yesterday, my brothers skin changed and in a few minutes he was not allowed so sign in his account.
The guy contacted me before this happened and asked for a vintage luger for free after the trade (because alpha accounts are worth more, this happened about 3/4 weeks ago) and I think this made him change the password

I agree with lemonator, I mean this was real money too not just items that sometimes are able to be bought for real money...

Set up a sting operation that scams all his items.
Also, I'm working on a small guide on how to find targets and such.

Oh, yeah, I know you. You're the guy who took part in my Physician Mask raffle on SPUF (when you all ready had 4 Max Heads), and it was meant for people who would actually use it and not trade it later on for profit. You're also the guy who made this post boasting about your Max Heads: [url]http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?p=21383190#post21383190[/url]
Here's a guide for all you up-and-coming scammers. Credit to Yours truly, Intense, Rude, and anyone else who have had posted tips.
So, you're interested in scamming, hmm? You feel particularly charming, you have a decent assortment of weapons and a good amount of patience. However, who do you scam? How will you know who has the goods and who isn't worth your time? I'm here to help you with that. These examples will help you easily pick out targets from a server full of folks.
[I]This is a real person whose identity I have changed to protect their privacy. They don't have that good of items anyway, you'll see.[/I]
[img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/GIvbb.jpg[/img_thumb]
[B]Point 1: Usernames.[/B] If they have something like "Sharingan Master" or "Wolfman2123", they just may be worth checking their backpack.
[B]Point 2: Avatars.[/B] If they have a default TF2 avatar or no avatar at all, look up their backpack. If they have a anime avatar or some sort of meme avatar, look 'em up as well.
[B]Point 3 and 4: Gameplay Stats.[/B] This is the first thing you should look at. What year did they join? How much playing time do they have? What game do they frequently play? How many hours have they racked up on those games?
As you can see, this person is more interested in CoD4 then TF2, which means they probably don't play TF2 to get a full grasp on what their items are worth.
[B]Point 5 (Unseen): Steam URL[/B]. There's only 3 types of URLs.
You have the Custom URL. Usually their username or something relating to the person. These are the easiest to type and easy to remember. However, this usually means the person knows what they're doing and have a grasp on the Steam Community.
Then, you have the more common ID. What looks like a bunch of numbers are actually two similar URLs. There's two main parts of these IDs:
All of these common Steam IDs start with these 6 digits: [U][B]765611[/B][/U]. Then, you have two identifiers: [U][B]979[/B][/U] and [U][B]980[/B][/U].
[B][U]979[/U][/B] means the account is pre-2009. These people have been around long enough to know what's up and are generally knowledgeable of the community. However, some may just have the account and don't particularly care about the games they play.
[B][U]980[/U][/B] means the account is 2009 and on. These people are usually newer to the community and will most likely be your primary targets. However, some may become deeply engrossed with a community and become a quick expert on that game. I've run across a few of these people who definitely knew the value of their items. Some 980s will offer outrageous deals since they have few items that they will give up. Others will give up their prized hat for one weapon. We've seen both happen, and I'll bet that most of you have traded with 980s.
So what does this all mean? It means you only have to remember the last 8 digits. These last 8 digits are the unique ID of that person, the first 9 mean nothing. This allows you to go through a lot more people in half the time and half the effort.
Now comes the part of what to offer them. This is easier than you might think. Remember to ask them if they're looking for any items, but it also helps to be a bit of a 'psychic'.

As you can see, this person doesn't really have much to trade for. If you were hurting for items or really wanted that Concheror, you could make some offers.
This person has a fair amount of vintage items, but maybe they really love vintage items and want more to improve their collection. They also lack Heavy, Demoman and Set Items. If they play that class frequently, offer them those items.
Follow the tips in the OP as well as [url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1062345-Scam-Trading-Megathread-V3-Bud-Shortage-2011?p=28738258&viewfull=1#post28738258]Rude's[/url] and [url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1062345-Scam-Trading-Megathread-V3-Bud-Shortage-2011?p=28738482&viewfull=1#post28738482]my tips[/url] and you should be a scamming pro in no time.

Ummm, depends on the offer.
Maybe i could give you a suspiciously vulnerable player with buds via PM, if you wanna try to obtain them.

Please. I'm looking for some; offering a Geniune Rift Set or a V. Lugermorph + Something else for them legally. Maybe something obnoxiously bad for the vulnerable.
