    What happened? Description:
    This guy adds me, asking if I have free time. I tell him I do. Knowing it's a scam. And proceeded to go along with it until he sends the fake gambling site to me. Once I see it, I tell him I know the scam, he tried to deny it but then admits and tells me that if I get people he will give me 30% of the profits.​

    I uploaded 2 screenshots of the chat.​

    @evnyix You need to check the sites before you submit a report here - this one is clearly a phishing site with a fake valve prompt for login.
    We don't accept reports for those so you must make sure of what you are reporting before you do so.

    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

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