    What happened? Description:
    Hey Steamrep, long time no see. I hope you guys are doing great.

    He was on my friend list for few weeks, maybe months, we added each other after a Dead by Daylight game. Today he messaged me that he "accidentally" reported my account and it will be banned if I do not follow his instructions. He told me to add a fake Valve employee on Discord. I added the fake Valve employee from an alt Discord account to get more proof of him trying to scam. After I told him that he will be reported, he deleted me from his friends list. You can see that on my Steamrep timeline. (Unfortunately only partners can acces that nowadays :))

    He was impersonating Gregori from Valve.
    | steamname: Gregori
    | steam3ID: [U:1:10]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:5

    | customURL: https://steamcommunity.com/id/greg
    | steamrep: https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561197960265738

    I attached the required screenshots, please let me know if you need anything else.

    Best regards,

    Unfortunately, SteamRep does not accept reports dealing with hijacking/phishing/hacking -Due to current Investigative Policy
    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/investigative-policy.140101/

    This includes anything to do with API key requests, wrong or misspelled URL's and sites requesting logins of any type in attempts to steal your credentials.
    These are phishing/hijacking attempts and are not to be reported to SteamRep!

    You can report the user to Valve instead
    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

    Click here to view an animated gif that shows how to report a violation.

    These are 99.9999% always a hijacked account doing it - so do not report these here.
    Report the user directly to Valve!
