    Description:
    Guy adds me , assuming for one of my trades up , asks me if i have seen what is being talked about me on the forums, i reply with "no" and he proceeds to link me the phish website, to which he says "login and go offtopic" , within ~ 30 seconds he removes me. I am tired , and was falling asleep , as stupid as this sounds , and i will not forgive myself, i entered my info - but the phish website prompted wrong login info , regardless i quickly changed my contact email and password , i seem to be ok. I of course, try to re-add him, to which he instantly blocks , i monitored his profile page , and over the course of a few minutes, it kept changing , as evidenced by the screenshots i have provided - Also something to notice, he only had 6 friends in the earlier screens, but down the list he has 0 friends - they could also have been possible victims, and he removed them as well.

    After the incident, i stumbled upon a thread about him already ,
    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/5922

    asking to provide for evidence of phishing , i was unable to post there however, so i have made this new report providing the appropriate evidence to support.

    So you're saying you put in your information to a phishing site? Did anything happen to your account?

    He told he was able to change his infos before the account got stolen.

    Correct , what happened was as soon as the website prompted me with incorrect login ,i noticed a huge grammar mistake , "That login donted work" - something like that - that raised a suspicion and then i noticed the adress bar URL right after that. Thanksfully i am quick with the keyboard , momentarily i changed my email and password - i had alot @ stake , i am fortunate i was able to respond quickly - who knows how much more seconds i had left before the phisher logged in.

    Thanks for the info. A SR Admin will investigate this as soon as possible.

    I would also recommend that you keep a close eye on your account for a little while to make sure you haven't been hacked.
