    What happened? Description:
    Tried to use the item verification scam by impersonating a valve/steam representative. He randomly added me a day ago. And today he messaged me on steam about a supposed report filed against my account for fraudulent activity. Then proceeded to try t get me to give him my items to verify by send me to an 'official' valve group page and reading their 'verification' protocols.​

    The reported user here is on the friends list of a participant from this report that I just recently posted. I happened upon this connection while checking the participant's friends on SteamRep. Klaz wasn't listed on the participant's guide of "verified admins" so I'm thinking there may be other versions of that "verified admins" guide out there and there may also be a wider array of people in on this scam.

    @Got Poop in my Soup In the future make sure you get a FULL screenshot of the users profile WHILE friends. You didn't do this and it hurt the chances of this getting approved.
    If not for another way to verify identity this report would have been invalid.
