1. There is no such thing as a "pending" ban or Steam admin. Anyone threatening your account is a scammer trying to scare you. Read more.

    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Fake reputation vouches
    Virtual item type involved: [Other] Other game items

    Accused profile: 76561197972256482

    Victim profile: 76561198010914579

    What happened? Description:
    Relik offered to pay for my uplay nvidia code,.
    he claimed higher reputation than me.
    I sent him the code and claim site, as shown in screenshot.
    He failed to send payment.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I realize not much can be done to verify who claimed the code,. but I feel it's important this guy gets a third report to his name as he managed to scam me and at least one other person that I have seen (steam64 ID: 76561198078483374). Hopefully it will warn others to be aware of this guy even if he does not get banned straight away it should help in the judgement of the user in the future.

    At least the event taught me that steam account "comment +rep" is completely worthless, and got me started on using this forum,. so there is some small solace in that.

    At any rate,. he's a full blown scammer, and a week later I noticed he scammed someone else who left a scammer warning on his profile,. the comment got removed (just like mine got removed) shortly after. I did manage to contact the other guy and get his story as well. Sadly he didn't think to take a screenshot.

    Details of the event:
    - we agreed he would send payment after receiving the code
    - i sent the code
    - he then proceeded to claim needing time, was confused about how to activate it, went offline twice, went afk for over half an hour, then stopped responding to my requests for payment.
    - I left a negative feedback on his profile
    - he removed it and unfriended me.

    Attached:
    - proof of my ownership of the code
    - proof of my sending him the code
    - proof of my not having received any payment such as he promised.

    I do wish I had taken a bigger chatlog screenshot,.. but hindsight being as it is... I wasn't using this website until after this event.​

    I'm afraid we do not accept reports dealing with cd keys, game codes, steam codes, Pin codes etc.. due to change of policy.
