just got scammed by this guy, spread the word
If u dont want -rep add him and talk with him about trade history if he using trade window
I'm assuming you're addressing QQgaming. If you're talking to me, I already added him and just waiting for him to get on. the other -rep is from the two impersonators that I noted above.
Yap, he also tried to scam me using your steam name yesterday, when i checked his steam trade profile its different from his steam id, already reported him to steam
lol still scamming the same person that scammed my
http://www.steamtrades.com/trade/EPSyS/alert-impersonators-scammed-couple-of-people-already-and-keep-scamming
when someone send a steamtrade profile link check the steam id, i forgot that and got scammed :'(
edit:
the mods/owners/admins need to make see profiles for only logged users, because all can just copy and paste a profile link
Impersonation wouldn't be an issue if traders just confirmed who they were trading with, especially if it involves keys. Too many new traders jump on too-good-to-be-true deals without even doing the minimal research on their trading partner. If someone adds you and simply gives you a steamtrades profile link (which I might add has a nifty button that sends you directly to their profile), it is not reason to trust them immediately.
Impersonator #2 is now impersonating another 100+ rep steamtrades user. If anyone knows http://steamcommunity.com/id/greendayrulestce, please let him know asap.
Now he is impersonating me http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197993902497 Already scammed someone cause i got -rep from person i didn't even talk once.

I am now being impersonated by the same person. He/she has scammed at least 3 people.
My original profile link
150+games, steam profile lvl 30+, 4 years of service
you know what am sick of this i never get anyone trying to Impersonator me Impersonators make me feel special for once.
mmmm, why you put me a -rep?¿?¿ i never talk with you, explain me or i contact support...
I know i have got a impersonator, i contact support 2 times and have got a 4 tickets in steamrep, isnt more easy add me to advie than put a -rep in my profile?
Delete it, thanks!
I left it just in case. Imo, a negative rep on your steamtrades is more noticeable than a notice on your profile since the idea of an impersonator is to make it so the victim never sees your actual profile.
Hey, so I just noticed that my fake negative rep has disappeared. Looks like our guy klubberx and his friends have been suspended. Great job, guys!
Rejoice fellow steamtrade users for these two users have been suspended for their acts. However, this doesn't mean you can completely relax as they can continue to impersonate users and contact victims outside of steamtrades. Stay vigilant and always make sure you are trading with the right person!! Happy trading!

If you are a new trader, spend the extra 10-15 seconds to make sure you're trading with the right person. If they send you a steamtrades profile link, click the button that leads to the actual steam profile and see if it matches. If you cannot at least do this, you have no one to blame but yourself if you get scammed.
The current steamrep.com report on #2. Please add any info you have on impersonations or scams by this user to that thread.
