    Victim profile: 76561198064804350

    What happened? Description:
    User is claiming to be some sort of steam admin, firstly he adds using a normal account, and then says that he mistakenly reported the victim and asks if the victim can add this "steam admin" to explain the situation to the admin. Then when confronted with facts he simply removes from the friendslist and runs away.​

    @Simplestn.tf You don't report this user - you report the user you were FIRST involved with.
    You are doing this backwards which makes it difficult to review properly.
    ONE scam - ONE report - and always against the main user that initiated the scam.
    How long have you known this user Chedder?

    No don't remake anything - but you should report the user you were first involved with and reference others and explain how they were involved in the future.
    I'll review this again soon.

    In the mean time upload that image here to the report -we don't accept evidence hosted on 3rd party hosting sites like imgur.

    Thanks, will review again soon - nothing else needed at this time and there is no need to post anything more.
    Feel free to review what you have provided and take the time to see what things you can do to prevent running into users like this in the future.
