    Accused profile: 76561198118990191

    Victim profile: 76561198096237269

    What happened? Description:
    My friend explained to me his account was hacked. This hacker lied me to that he accidentally reported me to Steam Admin for having dupes. This hacker showed me his profile pic and name asking me to friend his account just to try and hack into my account.
    I asked my friends if Ponyta (who is not because of a hacker) if this true if I got accidentally reported, and my friends told me Ponyta got hacked; therefore, this hacker is a scammer.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Here are some screenshots I took. Two explains what happened in our chat, and the hacker's profile pic.​

    @Redtheknight1 Your "FRIEND" was who started the scam - that is who you should have reported, not this user.
    You always report the FIRST user involved or who started it and reference others.
    Now I need the ID64 of your friend ASAP! You also need to make sure you report both your friend AND this user asap!!!

    Oh no, I must have grabbed the wrong one. Just wait, Ponyta's not the hacker. Ponyta's the victim. Let me fix this, please. I made a mistake and the number

    As you can see if you visit the SR profile above of your FRIEND - they were already community banned by Valve so they must have detected that they were compromised or hijacked so no need for us to take action at this time against it. Just remember to make sure you report the FIRST account involved next time you submit a report that involves more than 1 user. Also YOU are the victim - so your info should have been there not whoevers you did...but its ok.
    I'll finish reviewing this shortly -nothing else needed from you and no need to post again.
    Thanks!
