    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561199362974504

    Victim profile: 76561198836967499

    What happened? Description:
    Player was using my alias as an 'alt account to trade items on, and stalking my profile for people asking to trade, attempting to scam their items. A player that recently commented asking to trade for an item alerted me to this scammer.​

    Provide Evidence:
    This is the exact profile link, copy and pasted directly from the DM with the normal trader who informed me.
    https://steamcommunity.com/id/prohorsudakov576s

    They changed profile names and avatars within a minute of me posting the 'I am being impersonated' disclaimer on the top of my profile.​

    Impersonation alone is not a reportable offense - must show impersonation with intent to defraud here otherwise you can submit a report to valve. Showing chat logs between you and someone else doesn't prove intent in any form of the user you reported here.
    Case in point someone can copy your profile as much as they like so long as Valve permits it that is on them not something we handle.
    Nothing provided suggests/shows this user is or was guilty of any wrong doing per policy.
