    Thanks - do keep in mind that this user is already banned/tagged..there isn't any more we can do to this user. Should you come across a user like this again(check users out soon as you say hello) it is best to just report them to Valve, delete and move on.
    The screenshots showing the chat doesn't show any scam happening here - the profile images haven't changed since the first report that was against the user which apparently they do not intend to stop. But since nothing else showing intent will archive report.
    You can report the user to Valve if you want
    In order to do that, you have to:
    1. Visit the accuseds profile
    2. Click MORE drop-down located at the top right of the page
    3. Choose REPORT VIOLATION
    4. Select the violation, then describe it and provide the evidence
    5. Click SUBMIT REPORT
