    What happened? Description:
    So my friend when i went to pick him up from home started to act weirdly that his friend (real life friend which spoke to him on steam english only) said: i accidentally reported you, the steam support guy will contact you, after 5 min he gets contacted and starts to write with him on steam. He asks for steam guard (yes he is kinda stupid and trusty to other ppl), after the movbe to discord (idk why but still) he asks for his credit card info (CVC code in the back), so he asks me inmediately if this is sketchy, i started to ask proof that if he is who he is. He shows me a photoshoped photo in discord that he has the green badge on steamrep (as admins on steamrep have), so i go chcek if its true, its not he is just and ordinary account. So after about 10 min from the end of conversation he (my friend) is kicked out from his account. And after 20-30 min he gets 2 SMS from G2A that some1 wants to access his account, and after 1 hour he gets the same SMS (google authentificator) from OPSKINS. This guy already contacted several of his/mine friends with the same trick



    if you didnt understand this let me explain:
    You get a message from a friend "Hi m8 im sorry but i accidentaly reported you, dont worry there will be a guy from steam support to help us with that incident"
    The Steam support guy comes asks him for basic things, then he makes a trust connection with the victim and asks for steam guard and credentials, and then they go to another platform (discord in this case) and the suspects asks the victim the credit card credentials (at this point the suspect wants to use credit card)​

    Provide Evidence:
    the screenshot which are on mobile were taken when he asked for credit card, the rest was when th victim came home (luckily he still got the chat history on PC)​

    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!
