    Thank you - issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity (on Steam) thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the hypertext URL popup of the user's profile link on the bottom left of your browser. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than Steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's fullscreen and make sure that you don't edit or crop the screenshot in any way! Please upload the screenshot in a reply to this report via "Upload a File" button. Remember don't upload the screenshot to any other 3rd party image hosting site because that's not acceptable!

    Review this screenshot guide to help you:

    I have this screenshot I sent my friend of him trying to scam me. It shows I am friends with him since I can send him a message. If there is anything else I can do to provide information, let me know. Thanks.

    You need to turn on the Steam client's URL so I can confirm the identity or just follow the instructions above from my last post. Thanks!

    Can you please follow my instructions above? It's pretty simple. If you are providing a trade offer history that the accused sent you an offer through Steam then please open your trade offers history from a web browser, hover your mouse on the accused's name/avatar so a hypertext URL will popup in the bottom left of the browser. Take a fullscreen screenshot of that and upload it here. Don't forget to follow my above instructions for the friend activity, thanks!

    I did the screenshot hovering over his name with the trade offer that he said he wanted to do in the chat. He unfriended me on steam, how do you want me to do the friend activity, if he did this?

    Did you follow my instructions above in my first post? Friend activity won't disappear even if the user removes you on Steam. Follow this: Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity (on Steam) thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the hypertext URL popup of the user's profile link on the bottom left of your browser. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than Steam client.

    Friend Activity - Beside "Community" you have your Steam nickname/name - hover over that and you will see a tab that will appear named "Activity", click on that then find the accused where it says that you became friend with them. Do this in a web browser by hovering your mouse cursor on the accused's name so a hypertext URL (his profile link) will popup in the bottom left of your browser, take a fullscreen screenshot and upload the screenshot here. If you can't find it I'll will process the report without that. Thanks!

    At first I couldn't find it since I don't remember when I added him. Turns out it was far back in June 30 when I added him. Sorry for all the trouble here are the screenshots of me adding him as a friend.
