    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [None] No items

    Accused profile: 76561198256604759

    Victim profile: 76561197981176534

    What happened? Description:
    This is my first report, and it's kind of obscure, so apologies if do anything wrong!

    User added me after I posted some trades on CSGL, immediately noticed that the account was suspicious (new, no aliases, no comments/friends).

    They have stolen Penguin the Fluffy's artwork & theme, and are attempting to impersonate him(?). I blocked the account and immediately came here, as I feel it's best to just get the account banned and help shut down this impersonator/scammer before they can even begin.

    They copied his latest comment onto their profile, but changed the date and kept the signature. Quite blatant if you ask me.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Some Notes:
    - Impersonator has 11 friends and a new account
    - Impersonator has no comments
    - Impersonator isn't reddit verified​
