    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [CSGO] Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Items

    Accused profile: 76561198916165449

    Victim profile: 76561198838381601

    What happened? Description:
    The user added me as friends spontaneously and asked me to join a tournament. It is obvious that the user found my profile by following me through skin trading websites. I started cooperating and made some research while at it and discovered this account of theirs.

    | steamname: [FPD] Emily Valk
    | steam3ID: [U:1:127971805]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:1:63985902
    | steamID64: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198088237533
    | customURL: https://steamcommunity.com/id/oleyoemm
    | steamrep: https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198088237533

    This account is banned on steamrep for scamming, and it is clear that the user created a new account to continue their malicious activities while having a clean record. I asked them about this account and they verified it by adding me as friends and typing simultaneously. Then they sent me the link to the supposed tournament website "eflowbeta dot com" which has been registered on Aug 5, so it's quite clear that this is another attempt at a scam. Screenshots attached.​

    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
