Victim profile: 76561198286036207

What happened? Description:

I recently reported someone on the steamrep forums: https://forums.steamrep.com/threads...ke-global-offensive-items.173127/#post-454331
which was confirmed by a verified steamrep admin. The next day, I was added by the same admin, and I thought that it seemed strange. So I checked the alleged impersonator's page on steamrep and compared it to the actual admin's. I also compared the twos' steam pages. There was a clear difference as one didn't have a label on their steamrep page clearly identifying them as a verified admin. The impersonator added me and began to talk to me about the recent report, asking to complete a "follow up" process. After I responded stating that I wasn't scammed and never lost any items, the impersonator continued to talk about the "follow up" process, stating that not only will they be banned on steamrep, but their steam account will also be banned. I responded with a clear quote from the steamrep FAQs stating that the site has no affiliations whatsoever with steam. Afterwards, I called the impersonator out, stating that I knew they were impersonating the admin. Next, the impersonator began to threaten me stating that my account would also be banned. I confronted him stating that I wasn't scared of his threats. Finally, he unfriended me, blocked me, and changed his profile.​

Provide Evidence:

The impersonator added me, however, they did block me and unfriend me after I confronted them. They are in my historical data in steamrep though. The impersonator manipulated their steam profile so that it looked identical to that of an actual steamrep admin, however, changed it immediately after I confronted them.​
