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.

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.

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!
