    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198831726704

    Victim profile: 76561198041226599

    What happened? Description:
    Scam attempt through fake website and impersonating other traders

    Found a nice pattern M9 Black Pearl on https://csgofloat.com/db that linked me to this account, so I added him for a trade. few minutes later I got a friend request from another account, same name (shown in screenshots). Which was the first red flag.

    We discussed the trade and had gotten to an agreement on the deal and then he started talking about "defindex" nonsense and other things normal traders don't care about (if that info even exists). Which was the second red flag.

    He then started to try and get met on this unknown website called cstier(dot)net, which I didn't go to because I didn't trust it. He then started talking about cs.deals which is a site I do know and decided to play along for a bit longer, but nothing like a "defindex" checker or whatever on there. So I decided to call him out by saying "look man, either we go through with the trade or I will just report this as an attempted scam." and now I'm here making a report on it.​

    Provide Evidence:
    evidence attached below.​

    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!

    @Novic Please stop reporting these here - they are INVALID - we do not accept them. This should be the last one you submit because if you read the link I gave you on the first reply it explains this.
