Razor tournament voting scam

So some guy on steam decided to add me out of nowhere the account seemed normal at first but after I added him he said the his team was in some razor tournament and his team was in the quarter finals and he wanted to vote for his team so he could win the voting contest and sent me a link so I decided to open the link in a triage online virtual machine and it said airdrop season incoming or something so I closed the virtual machine and that was that i blocked the guy. Has anyone else had the same situation and how should I deal with it?

The "Vote for my team" variants of the phishing scam link has been going around for over a decade.

Report the account, block it and move on.

Everything is outlined in the KB article I linked.
