    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198197601923

    Victim profile: 76561198310105721

    What happened? Description:
    Someone messaged me out of nowhere telling me that I have been marked a scammer with fraudulent items in my inventory and that I should direct a message towards the accused (Enzo) who he claimed was a steam official. I was suspicious since he was trade banned and claimed that because "he can't get donations from steam users". I also became suspicious of his broken grammar, beginning sentences with lower case and lack of punctuation for some sentences. Eventually, he said he would ban my account after 2 minutes if I didn't give part of my inventory to a 'Steam Inventory database checker' and my account. He also sent a video of a mouse pointer hovering over a button that would supposedly ban my account. I impulsively gave away a trade deal in a moment of panic going through 2 step verification. It was only a bit after that I started questioning his account, like how he is supposed to be 'neutral when investigating' however he is active in popular trading groups (Muselk's server, etc.) and how he doesn't have any Steam employee badges in the 'private investigating team' because 'it will affect the community concerning fraud items'. He then went on to say 'this is not about trading' despite the situation. I realised that this is a scam account and tp 'deactivate me for all I care'. Enzo impersonated a Steam employee to trick me into giving some TF2 items away through a bot he can delete at any time and he used an accomplice by the name of Hatari, link provided here:

    This is NOT the first user you should be reporting - You basically reported the other user that was brought into the scam event. You must make sure from now on you report the FIRST user you were contacted by and who started the scam..you only need to reference any other accounts involved and describe HOW they were involved in the description by including the FULL SR profile block along with details of how they were involved.
    Also include any and all FULL screenshots you have as evidence.
    Please do not resubmit a new report - this one will do for now.

    How long have you known the LOL user or the friend? Been a friend for a while? Don't you think its strange they did this out of the blue?
    This is a very common hijacking method as in your friend may have been compromised.
    Do you have other ways to contact them?

    I
    I never knew the LOL user, we were never friends however as proven by the screenshots he just ‘happened to have found out I was labelled a scammer’ while browsing. Since the incident I have blocked and reported him.

    You can see his profile's previous names come up as '...d' and 'Program Item(s) | Database'.
