    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561199150644890

    Victim profile: 76561198101946171

    What happened? Description:
    This guy added me, saying that he's new to trading and he got scammed, so he reported a profile which was impersonating me to a "steam admin" but he reported my actual profile, so he wanted to click me a link probably. I stopped him before I stopped him before he could tell me to click the link because I knew it was a scam method. Then I asked him if someone believe in his scams and he removed me from the friend list.​

    Provide Evidence:

    but the reason why i comment and message you is to tell you that the scammer has copied your profile and i am here to aware you for that
    but i hope you will forgive me because instead of reporting the scammer i reported you to the steam admin for scamming me using a dupe items i am very sorry :(
    i know it wasn't you because i haven't traded with you thats why i am so sorry :(

    but bro the main reason why i am here is that the steam admin wants you to confirm to him that you are not involved my mistake report so that they will cancel my report and remove your account from ban okay?​

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