    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198386394571

    Victim profile: 76561198138721787

    What happened? Description:
    Accused added me as friend, and one look on their profile tells me they have intend to defraud or steal my account info. On the profile is a link displayed as "www․stеamcommunity․сom/id/AIGNDLS ", this is suppose to be their main account, the real link URL is "http://76561198132995163.info", which directs to "https://steamcomrnunitu.n-nu.com/profiles/pYT7Au", this is a clone site of steam website.
    On the page there is a link to trade offer URL "https://stеamcommunity.соm/trаdeоffer/new/?pаrtner=209023215&tоken=leKK8QW6", the real URL is "https://steamcomrnunitu.n-nu.com/tradeoffer/new/?partner=123382768&token=JkaEC2r7"

    The profile is clearly made with intend to defraud, luckily I did not fall for it, and new people on steam may not be able to see through the fraud and actually fall for it.

    Merry Christmas and thank you for your work :)

    Provide Evidence:
    Screenshot of invite, steam profile, fake steam profile and fake trade URL​

    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!

    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
