    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561197963050618

    Victim profile: 76561198073249092

    What happened? Description:
    I got the standard scammer add from this guy: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198366034558/ . He was an obvious impersonator and already marked on SteamRep, but I went along with it.
    He asked me to add an Admin for item verification so I did. The 'Item verifier' is impersonating an admin and wanted me to trade my items to him for verification. He wasn't marked on Steamrep so I took some screenshots to submit a report.
    Thanks for your time.​

    Provide Evidence:
    As you can see from the screenshots, both the accounts that added me were impersonating and trying to scam me. As far as I could see they are impersonating a bot account that is an Outpost admin. Also, if you look at his previously used names 'Curiosity' (the name of the first account) is used. (see screenshot)
    If you need any further evidence or clarification, just ask.​

    @Starach This is NOT the first user you were in contact with - you need to report that user not the other user...it makes reviewing the reports difficult when backwards like this.
    | steamname: Curiosity

    Now seeing as how this user is already banned/tagged - and you already knew that you should have just ignored/deleted them and moved on - there is nothing else we can do to that user. The other is nothing more than a throw away account and will likely be comm banned soon anyway.
    Check users out better before accepting friend requests - should you see they are already tagged/banned just delete/ignore and report them to Valve...move on.
    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
