    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198307632274

    Victim profile: 76561198188351270

    What happened? Description:
    AfricanDrugLord adds me (Already steamrep banned no report needed) and asks to check if my unusual is "Hijacked / glitched" (of course, no such items exist, blatant scam as is the usual...) and recruits his "admin friend" Which is obviously an impersonator assisting in this scamming attempt. We're here to report the impersonating "steam admin".​

    Provide Evidence:
    He doesn't show up on my activity feed. and hovering over his name in chat history doesn't display anything​

    scott: Hello Trader.
    scott: I saw you added me.
    omar23: Ye
    scott: How may i help you?
    omar23: I am trading with someone else
    omar23: he wants to verify if my unusual is glitched
    scott: Alright I can help you, but before anything else, please keep in mind that I am a SteamCommunity Admin and I do not want any trollers or any form of scam attempts on my watch. Please refrain from doing so and waste my time. Just follow my instructions and let me do my job.
    scott: Understood?
    omar23: Sure
    scott: Can you please invite the other trader here in our chat? So we can proceed.
    omar23: Sure

    If an already tagged user adds you and you see that then IGNORE THEM! Report them to Valve and move on.
    I'm not sure why more are not doing this - no sense in talking to them as there is nothing more we can do to them here.
    Who was that FIRST user you were in contact with? SR profile block is what I need.

    I knew they were both scammers, but like I said, time they spend attempting to scam me is time they don't spend attempting to scam someone else. and it's fun to give them the hope of getting an expensive item then waste their time

    It's not fun...not something we push users to do. We want you to avoid scammers not interact with them. User is already banned/tagged also...nothing more we can do to them.
    Don't see enough evidence against the accused to review either.
