    What happened? Description:
    At first, I thought it was just someone who I removed from my friendslist who wanted to add me back, since I recently just cleaned it. But I didn't recognize any of his aliases, so I decided to play along with whatever he had to say. Basically, tried to hit me with one of those "I'm going to give you $200 in steam funds but over paypal" scams. When I questioned his authenticity, he sent photoshopped pictures claiming that he would hack my account and change my password, all that good stuff. After that, I blocked and removed him, then just to be safe, changed my password on steam.​
