    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198320863837

    Victim profile: 76561198085685517

    What happened? Description:
    He was in my friends list back in days when i was active on trading on TF2 game which more than a year ago. Suddenly, he dm-ed me recently and told me that he accidently reported me because of confusion. He wanted to report someone else for scamming but "accidently" reported me instead because our profile and name looks the same to him. He claimed that he contacted valve employee for what's happening and he insisted that I need to add steam admin on discord to discuss about this issue (Anish Chandak#1889). When I didn't give him the response that he was hoping, he suddenly came to his sense and pretended to be innocent and said that he got hacked. Later, he changed his name and profile picture to avoid suspicion. (From 'banng to OSHA compliant Orby Waffles)​

    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!
    This is almost always being done by a hijacked account - its also threats which is against policy as well so report them to Valve...not here.

    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
