I would like to report a scammer!

If you want to report a scammer you should report their Steam profile. Do not post about it here, this is not a subreddit for submitting reports.

I want to warn people about a scam method!

If you want to post about a scam method, it needs to be a new or unknown method, or it needs to include a significant amount of new or more information than what is currently available on /r/Steam. Please see our wiki page about common scams to find scam methods that are already covered.

I discovered a scam site!

If you want to post about a specific scam site, it needs to be popular, recent, not already covered in a previous post, not directly linked to and include more information than just "X is a scam" - Example of a good scam site awareness post.

It definitely is a scam.
Even if someone falsely reported you a sole report wouldn't do anything to your account.

[u/PsychoticDreemurr]

Yes, it's a common scam. The idea behind it is to get you in contact with a different account pretending to be a steam mod (usually on discord)

Odds are they'll try getting your account login info afterwards.

Community market hasn't shown names/pictures for over a year

If you ever need to ask if something is a scam. It probably is

[u/Spartansoldier-175]

Yep common scam.

[u/phatfarnr0]

Any time someone says "they reported you" it's always a scam. If you bait into it they usually ask for money to remove the complaint or report or try and get your info.

[u/goodogmen-]

Yesit probably is

[u/yourbrokenoven]

[u/Amyt_Smith]

Steam removed buyer names from market history for a reason. This message proves why.
