    Scam Report

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

    Accused profile: 76561198091373310

    Victim profile: 76561198345504128

    What happened? Description:
    User added me telling me that they were speaking to a "Steam Admin" about my account being looked at for fraud or whatever and then told me that in order for me to get that resolved I had to add a "steam admin" they happened to be friends with. I went along with it long enough to get both accounts information; the one that added me and the one impersonating a steam admin.​

    If necessary I can also send all of this information to steam support in order to make sure people like them aren't allowed to continue to pull this on other unknowing users.
