HttpClient PostAsync Invalid Post Format

Question

I am trying to use HttpClient's PostAsync to login to a website; However it always fails and when I tracked the connection using WireShark I found that it posts the data incorrectly

Code

var content = new FormUrlEncodedContent(new[] 
{
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value1", data1),
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value2", data2),
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value3", data3)
});

or

var content = new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>>
{
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value1", data1), 
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value2", data2), 
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value3", data3)
};

usage

httpClient.PostAsync(postUri, content)

Expectations

value1=123456&value2=123456&value3=123456

Reality

//It adds strange += which makes the post fail...
value1=123456&value2+=123456&value3+=123456

Answer 1

I Know this works:

var values = new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>>();

values.Add(new KeyValuePair<string, string>("Item1", "Value1"));
values.Add(new KeyValuePair<string, string>("Item2", "Value2"));
values.Add(new KeyValuePair<string, string>("Item3", "Value3"));

using (var content = new FormUrlEncodedContent(values))
{
    client.PostAsync(postUri, content).Result)
}

Answer 2

Trim the parameters for possible whitespaces. Whitespaces result in a +

var content = new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>>
{
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value1", data1.Trim()), 
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value2", data2.Trim()), 
    new KeyValuePair<string, string>("value3", data3.Trim())
};
