Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud

Victim profile: 76561198085179564

What happened? Description:

I was added a number of days ago by this user with no reason attached, which I blindly accepted. Today, 18/7/2016, the user messaged me attempting to buy CS:GO keys via paypal. After digging a bit I found that the account is an impersonator.​

Provide Evidence:

The screenshot shows in the bottom right the chat window taken full (my internet disconnected briefly before the 'live' part of that chat) with no crop. As you can see, the user agreed to a trade on the condition of rep, however this user was using the rep thread of another user (the impersonation victim, and the link in the chat will confirm that) and he himself has been reported for scamming before.

The window in the top left shows the impersonator, as you can see he is friended, the bottom left shows the legitimate account (which the rep thread the impersonator linked links back to) and is not friended. note the other inconsistencies in badges, description etc.​

Okay, duly noted, sorry for the waste of time figured it was better to be safe than sorry.
