    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198009783084

    Victim profile: 76561198060403683

    What happened? Description:
    IMPORTANT: THIS IS A HUGE SCAM COMMUNITY, WATCHOUT FOR THESE GUYS!
    Hello,


    I've always read guides and posts to avoid getting scammed, and I baited these guys to give me more and more evidence. Luckily some of them got steamrep banned but not Valve banned yet.

    What happened:
    A random guy adds me because of a trade. ( I post trades on Dota2Lounge)
    He asks me "What was i selling?"( Typical scammers question when he adds a lot and doesnt know.)

    I gave him a full list, he then asked me to go to a Guide on steam, which is hidden in STEAM LINUX FILES, that fakes and impersonate Steam Valve staff and admins!
    He will then add one of those " Fake Steam Valve admins" and tells you to add him.

    The fake guy will be impersonating a Valve staff and confirms it if you ask him if he's a Valve Employee, and then asks you to Submit your items to him FIRST , and then he'll send you the money.

    Proof below will show evidence of all those involved, the fake guides they have which impersonates employees, the scam techniques and so on, the one who created the guide is valve trade banned, the rest aren't some of them are steamrep banned though!​

    Provide Evidence:

    The whole chatlog is included in the Evidence above!

    I can't edit the post to add more links that were in the Evidence Screenshots above, anyway here are few links:
    - Guide that Impersonate Valve employees saying they are actually hired and work for Valve and they are a trusted middlemen. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=922683485
    - Scammer: http://steamcommunity.com/id/765611983316363486-
    - Scammer assistant: http://steamcommunity.com/id/aRoyalFlush-
    - Scammer Middlemen: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Admin-BlueMoonMod/

    I told Valve not to close that group before they check IP Addresses and do their Research about everyone involved in that scam community, they also sometimes connects to 3 accounts at once, one from Steam Client, one from Browser and one from Phone lol.. so it is possible that all 3x can be on 1 IP..

    Thanks - do keep in mind that this user is already banned/tagged..there isn't any more we can do to this user. Should you come across a user like this again(check users out soon as you say hello) it is best to just report them to Valve, delete and move on.
    There is nothing more we can do to this user - they are still doing the same thing and the evidence presented doesn't give enough to validate yet another report.
    Report them to Valve
    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

    Click here to view an animated gif that shows how to report a violation.
