Bots locking items but never buying them (new bot scams)

I don't know if this is a new thing, but I whenever I list some blighted maps in my asynch trade window they instantly get reserved but then no one ever shows up to actually buy them. My guess is it's a new bot-type scam/RMT helper thing, where they either lock everyone else from selling the maps they want to sell or make it impossible to farm the maps for anyone but themselves.

Either way, it makes selling those items on asynch trade impossible GGG needs to please quickly figure out how to stop this

intended feature

What? This is not a thing, you can't reserve someone else's items.

I see. I guess I assumed cause it has the locked icon and I can't remove it, but if you tell me other players can still find it and buy it then cool. Thanks!

That really made me laugh hahaha

Hover over the item, you'll see.
