Victim profile: 76561198079981360

What happened? Description:

Account 1, steamID64:76561198271972466 added me and told me they accidentally reported me to a steam admin for having duped items. They referred me to Account 2, steamOD64:76561198342961519 (accused) who they called the steam admin. They said I had to add him to clear this up. The "steam admin" says I have a pending account deletion for having duped items. They say I have to prove my items aren't duped or they will delete my account. I get a trade offer from Account 3, steamID64: 76561198403676172 who Account 2 says is their database bot. I'm supposed to trade my stuff to Account 3. This is where I ghosted them.

Notice how, when I come back at 9:15, I message Account 1 and the scammer immediately messages me on Account 2.​

Just realized the report below me is pretty much the same thing. I already reported all 3 accounts to steam. I set the second account to contact me as the accused because that was the account actually impersonating a valve employee. I have the info for the other two accounts:

Account 1:
| steamname: =WL= SPAHS [PYRO MAIN]
| steam3ID: [U:1:311706738]
| steamID32: STEAM_0:0:155853369
| steamID64: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198271972466
| customURL: https://steamcommunity.com/id/2354125
| steamrep: https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198271972466

Account 3:
| steamname: DataBase: 92334
| steam3ID: [U:1:443410444]
| steamID32: STEAM_0:0:221705222
| steamID64: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198403676172
| customURL: https://steamcommunity.com/id/DataBase92334
| steamrep: https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198403676172

The steam name for account 2 doesn't seem to have copied over, probably because of special characters.

Yup, reported all three to valve.
Thanks, horse
