    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Misrepresenting virtual items
    Virtual item type involved: [Other] Other game items

    Accused profile: 76561198071189478

    Victim profile: 76561197975587947

    What happened? Description:
    This person has sent me multiple messages trying to get me to click a link of a knife, and if I wanted it then I tell him so his 'friend' can add me. Not really sure which game this is for, but if I had a guess I'd say CS:GO
    something doesn't seem right.​

    Provide Evidence:

    Person randomly sent me a f/r (we have no friends in common). Then want's me to click a link (which doesn't seem like a .jpg type picture link), and if I like the 'knife', the person would contact their friend because their friends 'friend list' is full.​

    Unfortunately, SteamRep does not accept reports dealing with hijacking/phishing/hacking -Due to current Investigative Policy
    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/investigative-policy.140101/

    This includes anything to do with API key requests, wrong or misspelled URL's and sites requesting logins of any type in attempts to steal your credentials.
    These are phishing/hijacking attempts and are not to be reported to SteamRep!

    You can report the user to Valve instead
    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
