I just ran into a scammer and would like to inform you guys about him. I also reported him at Valve, SourceOp and Steamrep. Code: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Iavendertown/ http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198040151117 He has FAKE links on his profile redirecting to FAKE Steamrep and SourceOP pages. Code: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198043622578 http://suoceop.com/forums/threads/105695-The-Anikilator-s-Rep-Thread.html Be warned! This guys is probably one of his alt accounts: Code: http://steamcommunity.com/id/fme20xxx/ Also using a fake SourceOp reputation link. Note: the seoceop.com site might contain malicious software!

Re: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Iavendertown/ I have reported the link to: - Google - Eset - Symantec etc, See: http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/what ... you.22650/ I treat those fake sourceop sites the same as phishing. Eset just ago blocked the site to me.
Re: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Iavendertown/ I tried the link khad posted, just get a not found error. Have to say no one has ever tried phishing on me, someone gave me a photo shopped image of a Paypal payment they apparently made to me once, which was amusing.
Re: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Iavendertown/ Thanks for the respons and actions taken - Changed the initial post to make the links non-clickable. - Added a warning A friend of mine got a virus warning from this website (ESET user) so better safe then sorry. Reported both accounts on SteamRep and Valve and notified SourceOp admin about the fake links. Contacted the website hoster as well about this. Scanning PC atm :-\ Eset online reports a Win32/Packed.Autoit.E.Gen (and C) so this probably came from the site. Be Warned.
Re: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Iavendertown/ I don't get stuff about malware, and its probably more about me having done that report
Re: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Iavendertown/ Good catch Khad and I hope your pc is not infected now! Always sad to see stupid scammers in our TF2 world...
Re: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Iavendertown/ Improper format However the scammer is already tagged and it's a nice catch anyways.
