    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Gambling] Fake gambling website
    Virtual item type involved: [DOTA2] Dota2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198407327683

    Victim profile: 76561198087833949

    What happened? Description:
    This user added me out of nowhere and claimed to have the ability of making me the jackpot winner. He asked me to deposit items into his second account.

    Second account: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198446699083/

    I knew this was a scam so I just played along with him until he told me which scam site he was using. The rest of the conversation was just me wasting his time and then asking for nudes.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I have included screenshots of the full conversation even though most of it was just me wasting his time. I have also included screenshots of his main and second account. I'm not sure if more evidence than this is needed.​

    Take the time to check the site - it clearly is phishing as it pops up a fake steam login page when you click to log in.
    You must check these out prior to making a report since we do NOT take phishing reports here..that must go to Valve.

    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
