    Victim profile: 76561197998636806

    What happened? Description:
    Tried scamming with a site called tf2deals which redirects to a fake steamcommunity. Got a friend invite through either backpack.tf or bazaar.tf and accepted it. He wanted me to check out the unusual's "stats and item index". When asked how one does that he directs you to the website which requires you to log in.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Chat log posted as picture. Got blocked just as I was trying to get more pictures.​

    Unfortunately, SteamRep does not accept reports dealing with hijacking/phishing/hacking -Due to current Investigative Policy
    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/investigative-policy.140101/

    This includes anything to do with API key requests, wrong or misspelled URL's and sites requesting logins of any type in attempts to steal your credentials.
    These are phishing/hijacking attempts and are not to be reported to SteamRep!
