    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198162597077

    Victim profile: 76561198045402762

    What happened? Description:
    Accused user sent a random friend request and asked if I would like to trade some items, we came to the agreement of 5 keys for the items he wanted to trade for after he sent the link to the inventory of the user he was impersonating (whom I filed as the victim) and he then asked if we could get a steam official to make sure the items were legit at which point I called him out for his attempted fraud. I believe that this user was impersonating with the intent to scam users out of their items​

    Provide Evidence:
    In the screenshots provided the first five are screenshots of the conversation in order and the thrid to last is the accused account page with the second to last being the victims account page, the motioned trade offer was never sent to me in any way and the last image shows my trade history with the most recent trade offer displayed​

    @ThiccSylveon You need to make sure you do a full screenshot of the users profile WHILE friends not afterwards..it helps verify identity and that you were in fact talking to this user.
    Also you have images embed enabled in steam chat - I suggest you turn that off so when a user sends you a link it really shows up the link in the chat logs.
    I'll review this again soon.
