Just asking, why do you want the name blurred? It's obvious an alt account, with most likely 0-1 games. Plus, why not spread the word about the scammer?
Also, this scam isn't new at all. Everyone who does/did even a small but of trading probably experienced this multiple times in the past few months

Oh really..? What 'bout this one, not-fake-at-all-steam-community-click-on-it-ultra-super-legit-no-scammers.com? I find it rather unsuspicious...

This is not new. This kind of scam has been seen a lot.

I remember somebody tried to do this to me (years ago).
I knew it was fake anyway, but instead of instant blocking them, i decided to troll them.
I acted like i was clueless, and wanted a "step by step" on how to do it. Basically, seeing how long i could keep them going.
After about 10 minutes, they got fed up with it and unfriended/blocked me. Shocked i kept them going THAT long.
People like that, that try to scam me and waste my time, i just waste their time instead. :P

Nothing new as its been stated. This is a very widely used phishing attempt. I probably get 5-10 adds of this nature a week, sometimes more. A few months ago someone on my friends list got phished this way and I came thisclose to falling for it myself, but Chrome actually caught that it was a phishing attempt before I input any info.
Best tip to avoid these: If you get any friend request from hidden profiles or profiles with very few games (less than 5-10) on them adding you, don't even bother adding them. Just block them immediately. If you have a trading thread somewhere make it a rule that they reply to the thread before adding you.

I received a strange friend request, the guy said to add a friend. But the link that he has written is a scam site.
