    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198435028427

    Victim profile: 76561198084247194

    What happened? Description:
    A random person added me and I asked them why the did. While I waited for them to respond, I went ahead to check their SteamRep and sure enough I saw a red marks on their page. I played innocent and decided to waste their (and my) time until I decided it went to the point where the trade will be conducted. The screenshots provided will demonstrate what occurred during the scam attempt. Unfortunately due to the new UI, I was unable to figure out how to enable constant timestamps as the tutorial listed is outdated. The scam, from what I've seen, is the usual "verify the items through a 'valve employee' type", and the initial scammer has an accomplice, or they are the same person.

    There's already a report on the accused's accomplice, and I don't have too much time left, so I'll just report this guy.​

    Provide Evidence:

    Thanks - this user is already banned/tagged - nothing more we can do to them.
    Should you come across a user like this again upon checking them when you accept as friends, its best to just report them to Valve, delete and move on.
    Due to the amount of offenses already listed on this users profile, we won't be listing any thing more.
    Report will be archived for future reference.
    Again you can always report the user to Valve
    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

    Click here to view an animated gif that shows how to report a violation.
