    You can post pictures, but edit out the name. The message could potentially be out of context and that may have been the reason he or she was not banned. Support has a much greater influence than us anyways.

    People who try to scam others need to be called out and plastered for everyone to see in my opinion. So thank you. However, if by request STS devs ask you not to post their names. Feel free to post names/screenshots and slander the heck out of them on the STS fan forums! We welcome and encourage everyone to let us know of any scammers so that we can assure none of our friends get scammed (also so we can troll them).

    So head on over to www.stsfanforums.com and put this guy on blast there!

    Thank you once again for the name.

    Let's make it SPARKLE!

    Well, the case you presented here is a scam in common sense but it is not against ToS (terms of service)

    Everything what is going inside the trade window is legit. It's between you and other player and you are in full control of the situation. Trade window has TWO CONFIRM buttons - so it is kinda scam-proof. It is not fool-proof though so newbies can be tricked into scam but still - they should think TWICE and remember that free cheese is only in the mice-trap
