Fink 64 Posted February 15, 2015 You have to verify you want to accept a trade for every single fucking trade now on steam. And to verify you have to go to your email. Trade bots are broken now. Steam is way too overprotective of the stupid kids that get scammed, so they had to over handicap them. Steam trading has been ruined 1 SupremeWolf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kypari 579 Posted February 15, 2015 You can turn it off somehow, others have done it. However, if you do turn it off and get phished, steam support WILL NOT grant your items back, regardless of how much you plead. 1 SupremeWolf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why you don't click links when it comes to traders and random people that message you, it is almost always a phissing link. If I trade it is always direct on a server, not a link. Steam should just let those kids get scammed because that is how I learned 1 SupremeWolf reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dethman 191 Posted February 15, 2015 Yeah, just dont be an idiot. Steam is over protecting these kids, and at the expense of others. They are even ruining scrap.tf and other sites due to the over protection. This is hurting the tf2 community and trading more than helping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
