Hello, thank you for making a Ban Appeal.

You noticed the tag, did you read what it was for?

I understand your English is poor, so I'll respond with simple questions until it's no longer possible.

it means, The tag is what for?
i read FAQ at steamrep and the answer is
"A scammer is anyone that uses deception, thievery, lies, or anything that is underhanded to take advantage of or steal from another trader. See below for more comprehensive list of what qualifies for SCAMMER status."

and im marked as DGN Scammer
so, i must make appeal in here first before in steamrep forum

sry if i can get your question clearly..
if i wrong to undestand that question, please tell me

thanks again for answering

It says DGN Scammer, do you know the Reason for? While that is true, that's just the general term for anyone that commits fraud.

The main reason you were tagged, if you missed it, is below your profile on SR, for Fake Rep.

Please click the link on your profile, and explain to me what happened.

Thank you.

Here's what happened, did you know that the person you traded with, on that date, had close to ZERO hours played on DOTA 2? Do you realize how suspicious that seemed, because someone who had zero gaming hours, hasn't even been on Steam for not even close to 2 whole months, suddenly is trading for high-priced items? It's not obvious, I'm suspicious that the person who you traded the item for, may have been an item that was stolen. Please make note of all the trades you do in the future, and avoid from trading with users who don't have any history/reputation, especially those who obtained reputation fraudulently. To explain what I mean by that, take a look at these screenshots.

Notice the last picture, how it has +rep by the same person, multiple times? That reputation is fake, look at the trader who gave him 'rep', he has never traded, and can't trade because he is Trade Banned. Now, look at the pictures again and then this. http://steamcommunity.com/id/aaaa89/allcomments Notice the difference? All of that 'reputation' is now gone, replaced by possibly legitimate reputation, that shouldn't be there, because this user deceived people into thinking he had 'rep', when the sign was obvious that this account was never that active to begin with.

Since you have proved that you indeed traded with this user, I'll remove the tag, but please be careful with who you trade with in the future, as trading with users like this person, who's more than likely a scammer alt, can have you marked for trading with obvious scammers or scammer alts, as you were reckless in making your choice.

Please allow sometime to have your tag changed, if you have any questions, feel free to ask here until the tag has been fixed.

No no no, unless you have a SR Tag, then you don't need to appeal on SteamRep, we'll handle everything, In-house. I already made the request to have the tag removed, all we have to do is wait for SR to change it.

It's quite alright, have you ever heard of Reputation Threads? If not, I would start using them when you make trades. http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/what-constitutes-reputation.12391/ Because clearly, you were a victim of a user who falsified reputation.

If you go here, http://dota2traders.com/forums/reputation-system.19/ you can see what they look like. D2T is a SteamRep affiliated community, so it's perfectly safe.

Let me know if you have further questions. This thread will lock once your tag has been fixed. (I will notify you when it changes)
