What happened? Description:

Attempted OPSKINS fake bot scam. I decided to go along with it until the end because I wanted as much proof as possible, so sorry for the multiple screenshots. Their fake bot seems to have already been banned on SteamRep, but I will put the account infobox thing here anyway.

I can find evidence of other people adding me, but not them. Could this be due to the fact their profile is private, or that they may have blocked me? Also, it does not seem to show all my friends adding me. Possibly a privacy setting I simply need to disable? Sorry for all the inconvenience, I'm just not really sure where to go from here. Would a GIF of me clicking their name in the chatlog work? I do still have the chatlog up, and do not intend on closing it until this is accepted or rejected, as it may be needed for more proof.

I'm afraid I cannot find what you are looking for, but I did make a GIF of me scrolling through the chat log, hovering over the profile pic (which for some reason did not snow the little pop-up), and clicking it, while also highlighting the steam URL. I also took a screenshot while I was doing this for extra proof, but I'm afraid that's all I can find. I did however notice that they added one of my friends, I saw it while searching for the proof of them adding me, and I can provide a screenshot of that if it is worth anything. If this does not suffice, I am sorry for wasting your time, and if I ever encounter an unmarked scammer again, I will hopefully learn from this experience and provide better, more cohesive evidence. I really don't want this to be taken the wrong way, so again, if this is not enough, I am terribly sorry.

Alright but I will say that there is nothing about them adding me. I am guessing it is due to a private profile and/or blocking me.
