    What happened? Description:
    I was offered $145 to sell my knife in which i was delighted. I was listing on op skins and was told to send a link to the knife. I sent the knife link to buy it and the scammer said that the link had been removed as which was impossible because i still had it listed and i had a friend test the link. He preceded to inform me that i had to give him my API number or something. I knew this was not necessary as further investigation i found out this API number was a way he could scam my knife from the site. link to a video where this scam is explained://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bx1n8L80VI&t=257s​

    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!

    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
