So, I'm slightly ill today and I made a rookie mistake.
Here we have just another regular scammer:

I suggest checking about people offering for details as such: if they have a linked Steam profile, if they have previously been mentioned or received a comment on their forum profile; if they have store/bundle purchases. Sometimes might be worth pasting their profile into steam-trades too if they have it linked. Also, try and avoid offers that might look sometimes too good to be true especially if the users have suspicious profiles or possibly game bans

I see a lot of new users have no Steam profile linked, no wishlist, or even games to the public which makes it hard to verify them for a trade!

I know all that but I had a fever and opened a few trades in tabs, checked different profiles, mixed them up... And so on. I just want to warn others about this profile.

ATTENTION to everyone who thinks about make any deal with Solomon.

He's a thief.

He offered at Indiegala a Trade for his F1 2018.
I offered my key to the Scum game and wrote him to try it before putting the feedback and if he will have any questions - just add me at Steam and write a message.
There was no Scum game in his Steam library. I looked before I made him an offer.

He quickly completed the Trade and put the negative feedback on me. I thought that something wrong with my key.
Send him an invite to Steam friends but he didn't add me as a friend to explain the situation.
I checked his Steam Library - and Scum appeared there (with no
I checked his key for F1 2018.... and it was non-working. Already activated by someone.

His offer His profile at Indiegala Scum is in his Steam Library now (and no game stats of course) Check our Trade at Indiegala
You can look at his games at his Steam profile Steam Community :: Solomon
And check my profile Steam Community :: eguguwap

He activated my key for Scum.
I didn't with his F1 2018.

Please don't deal with this person.


UPD: F1 2018 he redeemed to his account.

Explain could be simple. My key he redeemed to another account. Or we didn't see that Scum was activated to his account. And in trade he put F1 2018 that was already activated by him.

But there was a chance that my Scum key was activated before trade cause our group received couple of keys and someone could redeemed the key before without noticing me. Thats why I wrote before trade to message me and check the key first. I didn't want to use the received key beffore full understanding of my key is working.

Question: If you had Scum on your account then why you need one more Scum? Just to redeem it on another account, yes?
2nd question: You have F1 2018 long time then why did you put activated F1 2018 key to the Trade offer? You couldnt activate it one more time.

Just the facts.

Most likely a Scammer, check his previous posts:
Arthur Morgan | Indiegala

He used to ask for this
View attachment 16403

But now he lists AAA games to trade and probably did 10 trades between himself to increase his rep
I can confirm this! He is real scammer. sent me duplicated key and he left me negative feedback.
I looked better and his key isn't even The Witcher 3, it is 0.99 cent game (Through Abandoned The Refuge ) and even duplicated!!
Stay away from this user Arthur Morgan! :mad:

I've completely stopped trading through IG. It's obvious that they're doing everything they can to help scammers and cheaters so why bother?
I miss when you could verify someone's trade profile so easily, I liked the step up to the new system, but probably until you are able to see someone's reputation again and where it came from it will be easier for scammers to lurk in

I'm browsing through the Trade section sometimes. At least 1/3 of all traders there are scammers or very suspicious characters.

Update: the scammer has been banned https://www.indiegala.com/users/@arthur-morgan/ but the negative feedback he left me remained, I'm waiting the support if can remove me negative feedback from him.
Edit: support replied me and they could remove me negative feedback he left me!
