    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198149756163

    Victim profile: 76561198362605258

    What happened? Description:
    I was contacted in Steam messages by a user calling themselves Team Fortress. They implied they were representing Valve, and that my items were duplicated/corrupted and that I would be permanently banned unless I had them review my items. They claimed that the only way they could review my items was if they were given my Steam guard authentication details. This is obviously a scam tactic. I was not fooled, and instead blocked them, but am reporting them in the hope that other users will see their profile is marked as suspicious and avoid being scammed.​
