Your item can be transferred to a scammer exclusively on your initiative, Shadowpay Trademanager transfers the item only to the correct recipient.
There are cases when a scammer obtains a seller's "API key" and takes advantages of it:

1. API key allows you to track transactions in your Steam account and cancel them but does not allow you to create them on your behalf.
2. The attacker cancels the transaction created using the Shadowpay Trademanager, replaces the nickname and avatar of his profile with the data of the correct recipient, and sends a counter offer.
3. Without checking the reliability of the recipient, you can confirm this transaction, and it will be transferred to the scammer's account and your item will be lost.
4. Shadowpay will consider this transaction incomplete because the correct recipient did not receive the goods and you will not receive your money.
5. If you sent your item to a scammer, Shadowpay will not be able to return the item or add money to your account for this skin.

WARNING:

1. Never give your API key to third parties and services that you do not trust!
2. If you fall for the scam or/and you are experiencing similar situations or you are not sure if your account isn't compromised, update the API key to a new one here - Api key!

1. You need to make some of your Steam profile data (your inventory, game info, profile itself) public:

How to set up mobile confirmation

We calculate skin prices based on few marketplaces (including the Steam's one) so prices might differ a bit.Service fee is included in skin price reduction.

We accept almost any item above $0.10. Some items are not accepted because of their being unpopular on marketplaces.

You can only see tradable items which are not trade-locked (up to 7 days) and which could be accepted by ShadowPay.

We take 5% from selling items and 5% on each payout
