How to Report a User with NO TRADES on Outpost (Phishing Links)?
Hey Guys

Is there a way to report users who have not placed any ads on Outpost?
For Example - http://www.tf2outpost.com/user/76561198079283425

Scammers will always find Loop Holes in the system :) A number of users sending phising links don't have Outpost accounts - thus making it impossible to report them on the site :)

Thanks :)

That is the problem, because he has made no trades there is not a flag option.

I would just go ahead and report the Steam account directly to Valve, you may read over the i formation in the link below for further, related information.

It doesn't matter if he made any trades or not, you can go to their profile and report them directly from there.

For the user that Terminus linked above: http://www.tf2outpost.com/user/76561198079283425

If I go to his profile there is no way of reporting him, I only see an "Add On Steam" option for myself personally. Unless you are talking about his Steam profile and not his Outpost like what I explained above...

Well sadly if they never interacted with the site then it isn't Outpost's concern. It's the same reason why Outpost doesn't deal with users who insult others over Steam.

Besides nothing would happen if they did get banned. They're not using the site so it doesn't affect them and most likely they will throw the account away after a few days.

Makes Sense
Reasonable Logic

Thanks :)
