    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198192511369

    Victim profile: 76561198072294043

    What happened? Description:
    This guy added me today saying that he needed to show me a screenshot of something and that he wants me to add him on discord so he can send it, i just tell him i dont use it and instead he should just upload it to imgur, he then wants to go in a steam call to talk about it. at this point i still have no idea what he wants to show me until he sends a screenshot of what looks like him on my account; about to change my email/password.

    He then says he will give me a chance as long as i accept his trade request, this included my Unusual Hong Kong Cone and my Aussie Scatter Gun

    He then begins to tell me that i have 30 seconds to accept the trade otherwise he is going to 'hack' my account to get all my items. i keep calling him out on his lies but is still persistent and doesn't give up. until after a few minuets of threats and me still calling out his lies he eventually just says 'ok then, GOODLUCK <3'

    Have reported it on steam but just thought i should post it here as well, just because after a quick google search of his steamID64 it looks like he has tried to scam some other people using different methods​

    Provide Evidence:
    Seen below are the screen shots of the chat between us until i eventually blocked and reported him, and also a screenshot of the trade offer he wanted me to accept​

    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
