    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198354248924

    Victim profile: 76561198125066688

    What happened? Description:
    This user sent me a friend request and stated that he "made a huge mistake on your account", and went on to tell me that he reported me for having "duped items". After trying to convince me that my steam account would be banned, he sent me to a user who was impersonating a steam admin to "validate" some of my items. The impersonator sent me a trade offer url to a user named "Program: System Database". The admin impersonator is already banned on steamrep, but both the original scammer and the fake bot are not.​

    @Raemien Ok first off don't nickname users - I don't see anyone by the name of scammer here..the accused has no history of using that name.
    You have no evidence of you and this user ever being friends, I can't tell that anywhere on anything I have here in front of me so you will need to verify identity AND show that this user was the one using that nickname.
    We don't review getfriendmessage logs and we don't review videos so I won't be needing that or those. Some of the screenshots of the raw chat boxes are too cropped to use too. Lastly you never mentioned any other users here in this report but you show one the user gave you and another that had a trade offer up with.
    At this point I'm just going to reject this report for all the above and you can resubmit IF you have the proper evidence to show here mostly to prove you were in fact communicating with this user your accusing because as it stands you do not and for all we know you reported the wrong user.
