Ban Reason: DGN Scammer tag on Steam Rep

I admit my mistake, I made an exchange with one person and he is asked to leave a comment on a different account and for this will give me one more thing for free.
I promise to continue to do so, do not want to be a bad exchanger. I deleted a comment

p.s. Sorry for my bad English

Hello and thank you for making a Ban Appeal.

Since you seem aware of what you did, we'll cut straight to the offense.

So he asked you to leave him feedback on that account that you are tagged in, instead of the one you traded? Can you provide me with the SteamURL of the person you traded? *Not the person you were tagged by, but this person who you mentioned that he gave you a 'free' item*

I'm sorry, I saw the story and realized that I was mistaken, that he gave the thing.

Can you link me to that other account, and what account does that item belong to?

Well, now that's going to be a problem...that user is not only tagged, he is now banned from the Steam Network. The user who was originally tagged for Fake Rep, is now also banned from Steam.

Let's reiterate once more so we're all clear on what happened. If this is incorrect, please correct me.

You met trader http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198083209251 and traded the Armlets, correct?
Then he asked you to leave 'feedback' on this user. http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198004689584 With the promise of an additional freebie if you did, correct?

 

[YaHoo!]

Yes, but only want to correct, I tried to share with him but we did not come to an agreement, but I agreed to leave comments for Armlets

Alright.

I've reviewed the evidence I have, the damage you may have/have not intentionally done was give 'feedback' that seemed legitimate, and is, besides the fact it was for a very small, stupid trade, was more than likely used as a solicitation in order to make him and his alt, appear to be 'legitimate' and 'experienced' traders, when in reality, their two-three pages of feedback, were nothing but sodomy on commenting. http://imgur.com/jGs9gSD As you can see, the three 'reps' are from a user who has been tagged for quite sometime, and not only is he trade banned, it would have been impossible to even conduct ANY trade due to Valve suspending his privileges.

That 'post' and other's posts may have caused traders to loosen their suspicious...which led to scams like these.

This is why reputation threads, SteamRep, Google, your brain, and common sense come into play. You can not just assume that someone who has two, three, five, twenty, two hundred comments is all going to be 'Good Feedback' and it's all going to be 100% Legitimate. There is no sane way of tracking that, without using a tracking system, such as XenTrader, or traditional SourceOP feedback threads. I have decided to at this time, to go ahead and approve your appeal, however, I am only going to be downgrading it to a Caution, while you may have not directly contributed to the mess you see above, you still had an involvement that allowed people to 'trust' this user, and had their goods stolen. That is unacceptable.

Please take this as a lesson, and in the future, never allow people to quid pro quo on you, especially online, where people can not be trusted. If you need to leave someone feedback, insist on using a trading thread, such as the ones here, on DT2 Traders, Skial, etc, where it can be tracked, and recorded, and even audited for authentication.
