    Accused profile: 76561198178993601

    Victim profile: 76561198272637822

    What happened? Description:
    He random added me with a private backpack and asked me if i wanted to trade my unusual that i just got about a week ago. He then sends me a URL to a different guys backpack (I didnt click it bc it could be a phishing link) but i notice the URL for his account and the guy im talking to are both different. I then bring that up to his attention and am replied to with "This is negotiations account." I then go to his recent names and see that he has impersonated a few other known traders i would say. Obvious fraud with attempt to scam, ended with no response.​

    Provide Evidence:

    Thanks - do keep in mind that this user is already banned/tagged..there isn't any more we can do to this user. Should you come across a user like this again(check users out soon as you say hello) it is best to just report them to Valve, delete and move on.

    In order to do that, you have to:
    1. Visit the accuseds profile
    2. Click MORE drop-down located at the top right of the page
    3. Choose REPORT VIOLATION
    4. Select the violation, then describe it and provide the evidence
    5. Click SUBMIT REPORT
