Victim profile: 76561198111365589

What happened? Description:

This user randomly added me and told me that I had won 150 USD, he then told me that he was going to transfer it to me over paypal, when I asked how he sent this screenshot on which he has edited the HTML: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd....064/B5EF2B7A48B4AEA8D0CA8231D66E5AA688D6A6A4/

The url in this screenshot leads to a different looking page here: paypal.com/myaccount/transfer/homepage

He then told me I needed to give him my account name - somthing that steam has said is meant to be private

After I refused, he threatend to not go through with giving me the funds.

At this point I called him out for scamming and he told me he would change my password if I didnt trade him items and tried to open a trade (which was automatically cenceld due to my trade lock from moving steam guard to my new phone). He posted numerous edited screenshots claiming to be logged in as menad changing my password.​

[11:45]
Imperdius:
I thought you cant send funds over steam

[11:46]
kredousspy:
i can actually, but i'm using paypal to buy and send funds because i have my credit card in it and it's very convenient

[11:47]
Imperdius:

https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd....064/B5EF2B7A48B4AEA8D0CA8231D66E5AA688D6A6A4/

just your account name, don't add anything else

[13:27]
Imperdius:
oh wow
how did u get that page ive been looking for somthing like that for ages

[13:28]
kredousspy:
is your paypal connected in your steam?

[13:29]
Imperdius:
no...
huh? thats odd
I went to the same page
on my browser
and it says different
also, why does it want my steam account name
valve said that is emant to be kept private
surly if they were working together they would use steam id

[13:31]
kredousspy:
no? only the password is the private thing bro

[13:31]
Imperdius:
valve would use steam id
if they worked with paypal

[13:31]
kredousspy:
if you don't believe this it's fine, i won't force you.

[13:31]
Imperdius:

[13:34]
kredousspy:

kredousspy:
