The item was sold to the highest bidder, that being me. Second highest bidder did not win the item. Yes, I was also the auctioneer of the item. Your definition of a scam, or attempted scam, or whatever related to scamming, seems to be out of the line.
You didn't disclose the conditions of your auction in advance. That is a deceptive practice and it's great to have a warning on your trust page so that future bidders on your auctions could decide to not waste their time with you if they don't want to get cheated out of their win.
