    @Extremal In what way were you involved with this user? If someone else talked to you FIRST that is who you should report not this user. I have no way to know how or if you were ever involved with this user to show raw intent to defraud.
    Were you talking to someone else to start with?

    I have nothing to do with this user and I did not communicate with anyone about this.
    This profile I found ABSOLUTELY randomly.
    I was attracted by the "very colorful" profile description associated with middleman services, as well as a fake screenshot in the showcase of illustrations. In the aggregate of these factors, the idea has arisen that this user is MAYBE a fraudster, because he tries to impersonate the administrator / moderator.
    For example, a list with real moderators, for the truthfulness that he created and in which he entered himself - https://steamcommunity.com/groups/global-gaming/discussions/3/3338745825897258408/
    I do not have any direct evidence of fraud on the part of this user.
    I created this topic because a while ago I saw that such profiles of scammers was blocked.
    That's all I wanted to say. The decision is yours.

    @Extremal We can't just take reports from those that find random profiles - there is no context or intent to defraud like that which helps down the road if we tag and they appeal.
    Report users you have direct contact with and they attempt to scam you so we have additional evidence against the accused otherwise just report what you find to Valve.
    If we had everyone do what your doing here it would turn into a race to find whoever they can to make a report against when its possible some users may be just doing so for a joke against someone not really trying to scam anyone.
    Accepting this once.
    Be sure to report user to valve if you haven't already.
