    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Item Fraud] Quick-switch trade scam or attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198438072421

    Victim profile: 76561198170017649

    What happened? Description:
    Guy added me then did the "I accidentally reported you for scamming instead of someone else" and acted sorry so I would talk to himself pretending to be a steam admin so I would give him my tf2 unusuals I have displayed on my profile. I'm sure you've dealt with thousands of these before, I couldn't be bothered to pretend to go along with it.​

    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! The user here you reported was likely hijacked themselves.


    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
