    hello, sorry to disturb you can we discuss it for just a minute because it is very important, please?
    i just made a huge terrible mistake and I hope you wont get mad please cause I accidentally reported you for doing illegal purchases instead of someone else, the support said that your account will be suspended. I'm really sorry I tried to tell him that it was a mistake profile id but he wont listen to me I'm not joking on steam he said if you will not help to explain to him your account will be permanently suspended on steam that's why I contacted you I'm really sorry I didn't mean to report you bro can you please help me on explaining to him? I told the support that you are innocent but he is not listening to me the problem is he needs to add him to clarify the issue or else you will take the ban. https://steamcommunity.com/id/76543212312312[/spoiler]

    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!
    This is almost always a hijacked account doing this - so report them to Valve not here.

    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.
