    Description:
    This user IMed me this message out of the blue, and it is also posted on their profile page. I suspect that there is some malware at play here, because I've been Steam friends with this guy for a while, played a few games with him, and he seems legit. Nevertheless, either he is a scammer or his account is compromised in some way.
