Thanks!, these will do. I received one of these twice, although from the last time I remember the last 2 digits of his SteamID in his profile link ending with "44" or "45", meaning that he has more accounts. But still is the same person because his other community name was in Chinese and it meant "Mythbusters", exactly like these two identical profiles with the same picture as before.

They have a pile of accounts, so blocking one just means they do it with another.

Been invited by this guy three times now... Guess all you can do is keep reporting and blocking.

Oh, I got two of those from him last week. Both are completely different accounts with the same nickname and avatar. You can't block him effectively because each of those friend requests is actually from a different account.

He is a known hacker, I blocked him and failed too.

He just sent me 2 more invites.
This makes it a total of 5 accounts he's tried to spam me with so far (at least named Gaara).
Steam better soon update friend/group invite settings, since this is getting outta control.
Since Nov 27th, i've blocked 21 profiles so far from spamming invites (2 to 4 of them were phishing profile comments).
