Scam Report

Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

Victim profile: 76561198126900471

What happened? Description:

One day, I've received a random friend invite from that user (I accepted it), a couple of days later he messaged me trying to trade a few of my items for pure keys. I was all for it to the point he mentioned a "Steam Inventory Service Official" that I was supposed to give my items to and that he would check the legitimacy of the items. I played with it for a bit but then I told him that a "Steam Inventory Service Official" isn't a thing and after that, he unfriended me. I believe he could be: a) a really well-hidden scammer, or b) an account of a legitimate trader recently hijacked by the person I was talking to and used to scam other people using the reputation of the aforementioned trader. I, quite frankly, don't know who he really is, but all I know that he DEFINITELY isn't trustworthy.​

"The Steam Inventory Service is a set of features that allow a game to enable persistent player inventories without having to run special servers to manage users or items."
I know, as I said
You're either really naive, a well hidden scammer or this account is hijacked

I would like the report to be closed, the accused profile is not the person I've been interacting with, it's an impersonator that provided links to the REAL traders Steam account and Backpack.tf profile.

Ok, I'm stupid, just noticed the "dismiss notice" button.
