    What happened? Description:
    Offered to buy my hat on marketplace.tf, but wanted me to check something through a fake site called infoskins. You can find my disproving of the sites legitimacy in the screenshots. I didnt know them prior, they added me to "trade"​

    Provide Evidence:

    ▬
    :

    ?
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    Yeah,
    for 12 keys or overpay,
    you offering?
    ▬
    :
    I want to buy through the marketplace.tf
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    Thats not how i want to sell it though
    ▬
    :
    i can overpay
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    I just want tf2 items though, ive never used marketplace
    ▬
    :
    I can teach
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    How much ar you paying on marketplace?
    ▬
    :
    $34
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    So i just list it for 34?
    ▬
    :
    yes
    But first I need a link to your infoskins profile. I want to make sure that there will be no problems with resale
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    What do you mean an infoskins profile?
    ▬
    :
    infoskins site like a bp,use google
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    ive heard infoskins is a scam.
    Not sure if i should trust it,
    ▬
    :
    I have been using this site for 2 months. It's just shown information about subjects. Where is the scam?
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    I cant even log in.
    ▬
    :
    why?
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    the button does nothing.
    ▬
    :
    Try using a different browser, I have everything working on chrome
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    I made a couple of clarifications to make sure this isnt a scam, and ive found some potential evidence it is,
    I made a new steam account and put in the username and password, however it asks for a verification code on mobile, but the thing is, this account HAS no mobile authentication enabled.
    ▬
    :
    You just lost the opportunity to sell the unusual
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    Meaning potentially the website is trying to steal the account info and the aunthenticator code to fully gain access to the account.
    Youve lost the oppertunity to scam me.
    Forgeblazer Trade.tf
    :
    Enjoy the report on steamrep. Good luck in future scams loser.

    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!

    1. Visit the accuseds profile
    2. Click MORE drop-down located at the top right of the page
