Told off a Scammer.

[Sharp_Shooter]

Today this guy sent me a friend request and I accepted, I was suspicious right when he said I'll buy you free games. Here's how it progressed from there.

If you cant read it then here's the text right out of the chat box.

I've actually had people add me and give me free games. No lie and no scam. I got almost all of the half-life games for free.

[Raziel44]

Does anyone even fall for these things?

 

[Sharp_Shooter]

Lol who would and a person they're most likely very young and gullible.

 

[Darth]

Lol haha, same thing happened to Brownies, they seem to target alot of eGO members dont they?

Good job, I hate those damn scammers... so annoying. And, you get a baker's dozen, 13 cookies.

 

[Sharp_Shooter]

I love cookies! Nom noms.

 

[sokO]

Did they just gift you? ''

Yes.

I'd also like to mention I have no sympathy if you give out your password. NONE. Every single chat log, it tells you don't give out your password!

 

[Not-Z]

Wow....... they don't even try hard anymore........

 

[Chase]

Its fun to just mess with them, back when i did HL2RP in gmod i'd get alot of these chats.
Just mess around with them, tell them random passowords and usernames, and act super gulliable and confuzed like you just got steam. stuff like
"how do i find my username?"
"whats a steam account?"
They usually lose it and just say "its not worth it". Much fun can be had.

Also: if you do give them your info, I lose all respect for you simply because of this:
