    What happened? Description:
    He's added me and after a bit of negotiation about our trade he's told me this:
    (discord link) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/563041921384316929/826160778691346492/unknown.png
    I instantly realised it was a scammer but wanted to see where how far he'd go.He told me to add a "Steam Admin" to validate my items.

    I have also found the picture this "Brandon" is using and he apparently is a streamer:

    Here is his other account which has thousands of dollars worth of items probably just out of scamming:

    The "Steam Admin" account has been deleted since: https://steamcommunity.com/id/312543322342/​

    Unfortunately, SteamRep does not accept reports dealing with hijacking/phishing/hacking -Due to current Investigative Policy
    http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/investigative-policy.140101/

    This includes anything to do with API key requests, wrong or misspelled URL's and sites requesting logins of any type in attempts to steal your credentials.
    These are phishing/hijacking attempts and are not to be reported to SteamRep!
    These are almost always done by hijacked accounts - so report them to Valve not here and/or discord.

    You can report the user to Valve instead
    In order to do that, you have to:
    1. Visit the accuseds profile
    2. Click MORE drop-down located at the top right of the page
    3. Choose REPORT VIOLATION
    4. Select the violation, then describe it and provide the evidence
    5. Click SUBMIT REPORT
