    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [None] No items

    Accused profile: 76561198127313761

    Victim profile: 76561198102388474

    What happened? Description:
    A proxy account (with the steamID64 of "76561198977337283") friended me and told me that they had reported me to steamrep for scamming. Thinking this was likely a scam, I went along with it in an attempt to build evidence for my case. They proceeded to link me to this person's account, who impersonates being a steamrep admin. While he did not succeed in scamming me, so I have no real clue what he was attempting to do, I can infer this was most likely an attempted account theft.​

    Sorry about that, I've never reported anything to steamrep before. I don't know the user at all; he just sent me a random friend request, which I assumed was either going to involve trading or scamming. I don't have any way of contacting them outside of steam, and once I mentioned that the other account (which I'm now guessing is the actual 'proxxy') wasn't a steamrep admin, he unfriended me.
