    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198049684763

    Victim profile: 76561198110328683

    What happened? Description:
    Impersonation of Valve and SteamRep employees to try scamming with malicious links. I was made aware of them when they commented on my profile with a link to his fake group of "Community Admins" (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1504825947) saying (in broken English) I would be trade banned in 24 hours because "I was involved in duplicating items."

    So I take a quick look at their profile to see their "Real Name" box has "Valve Moderator | Sr Admin" and a link to the aforementioned steam guide. The account did not have the "Valve Employee" badge as any real employee would, and checking SteamRep showed negative for admin as well.​
