Did this happen to you?
It's actually done on purpose. The scammer took the profile number from the real account and used it as a custom ID.

Someone can just save the picture from your profile and use it on theirs. Not exactly rocket science. :P

I've been impersonated more than once, and had to explain to the people getting screwed that they dealt with an impersonator, but I have a good trading reputation so I can see the point in trying to profit from that. I'm not sure why a scammer decided to impersonate you since you don't seem to be trading at all, unless you do it somewhere else and simply do not have rep here on SG.

I don't trade here or anywhere really. And I'm not that active at steamgifts. Not part of many groups and hardly an online gamer except with friends. So how they found me? Clueless. :P
Maybe It's because of this averageness they picked me.

I like how the impersonator says 'Watch out for impersonators' in his info. That is classy.

He clearly picked you just because you are clean on steamrep - he links to your steamrep on his profile. His own looks a bit worse...

"a bit" Maybe a bit more than that, since he's banned xp

Just so you know, it says SR Scammer on his profile (for Enhanced Steam users). So you have that part on your side, which is nice :3 Also, half of his info is his, and the other half is your info. Like, for example, he has his own group in his info, while for 'his' SteamRep, he has the link to yours.
I really hate people lol.

What do you mean? Do you not know about Enhanced Steam?

No, I do not. I entered the realm of computerism mere months ago.

It's basically an app for your browser that gives you much more info to the steam site. It's easier to find things on sale that are on your wishlist, when you go to a person's profile it will give you links to more accounts connected with steam, and much more. Here

He changed his name and his profile is hidden now. Unfortunately steam support does nothing. :(

Been there my friend and have gotten negative rep over it -.-. Sucks when someone drags your rep through the dirt but there isn't much to be done sadly.
