What happened? Description:

I was added by an account with the username "LOL" and had a private backpack
he then went on to say hello, ask if i still had my unusual hat, and then when i said i had sold it but i still had some, he then asked how much.
at this point, he does not even know what ones i have, so its obvious he just added me and was asking what i had
after saying what hats i had, he then went and flat said " i can do 5 buds for both" which he does not have (his inventory is private and i didn't think to take a screenshot)
he then went to ask if i had a trusted friend online, add them, and then i noticed he copied my account on a bot (which had posted a +rep in his comments) and he intended to add my friend with that account and from then on i dont know.

this may or may not be in the right category, but he was attempting to impersonate me in order to gain my items so it kind of fits

I was kinda lazy to report something so I decided to just put it here for extra evidence

Did the same thing to me, checked steamrep and saw he/she had a report. Funny thing is that he/she says the same exact stuff to everyone, lets get him/her banned please : )

Also seems like he copied his profile info from someone else.

If you have any 'evidence', please make your own report rather than being 'lazy' and add it into an existing report.
