Come on people.
this isn'treally true. as captzeebo said earlier many deals are done without problem. i have acted silly like OP but had good luck never had a problem, i also probably had a bit better judgment than OP but a couple times i was quite careless. still though, i have made doznes of transfers with various strangers and aquaintinces and "friends". most of the time i would demand transfer first, or if it was a smal amount or i needed it done for convenience i would rarely send first...
edit: i guess you are right if a well known player asks a "complete stranger" that is fishy.
