Weird friend requests
Lately I've been getting a lot of weird friend requests from people who say something like "My friend wants to buy items from you" and then they post an obviously incorrect steam community link. I didn't click on those, because I'm afraid they might be hackers.

That being said, I'm only getting these dangerous requests because of Tf2Outpost; ever since I started putting up items for sale yesterday.
I can't help but think of all the people who might have fallen for it already... Isn't it the moderators' responsibility to make sure these people don't have access to the site, so they can't harass others?

Yeah same here im confused about that to. Just what ever you do don't click on them i think it might involve the phising scam thing on steam where you lose your items and get banned...thats what i heard.....but anyways the safest way is to block them immeditly and don't click on strange links :D

Block them from your friends list and report them to steam. Thats all you can do.

The OP staff have done everything they can to stop these bots without restricting user access.
