With a trade I mean. I mean if someone send a trade and then the other accept it and the sender cancels the trade, that means no one gets the other's items right? Or am i wrong? I guess what I am asking is how does one get scammed through a trade, how does one keep their gold but get the item the other user was trading?

To be scammed via trade, you agree on a trade, and they give, say, a Pink Link or a Mystery box. You have no idea what is in those.
Another way is after you finish your end of the trade, and they are using pure. They quickly drop the money to nothing or very little and then finish.

Scamming through trades is dependent on the one being scammed not paying attention or being impatient and wanting to close a deal quickly.
It used to be much more likely to item scam by placing a low priced look a like into a much higher priced items place. The sparkle system was implemented so one could easily tell if an item was a monthly collectible, rig drop, EI/REI by the color the item sparkled.
The most likely way to be scammed through trades is when trading items for gold worth multi millions and up. A scammer must actually have the gold agreed upon and start the trade. Once the seller agrees to the price the first time, the scammer will knock a zero off the agreed upon price and hope the seller doesn't notice and closes the deal.
It's easier for a zero to disappear as the worth of items goes up, but it really does just come down to the seller not paying attention at a critical moment when they should be carefully checking the numbers at every screen.

I thought if you had already agreed to a trade & then the other person makes a change, it notifies you by asking if you want to accept it again.
