I got this message from someone who is not even my friend on Steam:

Ку, можешь тут рулeтку крутануть (link removed) Если выпадет GTA V, PUBG или CSGO я могу купить ключ у тебя. Попробуй, это займет не более 30 секунд. Переходишь --> жмешь кнопку ROLL, выпадает бесплатная игра --> забираешь ключ и пишешь мне) Ну или же, активируешь её у себя в стиме)

Google Translator:
Ku, can you spin the roulette here (link removed) If GTA V, PUBG or CSGO falls out, I can buy the key from you. Try it, it will take no more than 30 seconds. You go -> press the ROLL button, a free game falls out -> you take the key and write to me) Well, or you activate it in your incentive)

It led me to this site but there's no way I'm signing in until I know if its legit. Scam Adviser gave it a very low rating
What do you guys make of it?

UPDATE: Yes its fake, I found out in 60 seconds. Its not an intelligent scam...but that is beside the point.

I shared this because it isn't the first time I have been messaged directly by someone who is not on my friends list. I have checked the Steam's privacy settings and there is no chat / message setting. You can only disable so much without affecting Steamgifts / Steamtrades. I have taken the links down and I am sorry if you were offended...but this is real and it doesn't look like its going away.

don't click links sent in pm even by friends. you should also do this in emails. go to the site by hand/bookmark. NEVER CLICK LINKS!

p.s. don't download that picture of that trade that some guy wants you to see. its not a picture and once its on your pc you're gonna have a bad time.

p.p.s. if something wants you to sign in steam go to steam's site and sign in there then refresh that page and if you're not signed in it's a scam.

Please remove the link and the site name. There's no reason to post it especially if it seems like a scam .. and it does.

For real? You posted it here for other people to click knowing it's likely a scam? Like, if you have to ask, you know it's a scam.

Not only that, you posted it's hidden/shortened url, even more dodgy lol. I'm not clicking it and I hope no one else does. Please delete the link.

Wild question, how do you report a user?

Worst type of trying to spam out that recruit bait website by masking it as a question.

Edit: Good that someone deleted the link. ^_^

I was kinda thinking the same thing to be honest, but was giving him/her the benefit of the doubt.

If there's anything your post reminded me of, its that people will forever be quick to judge and how easily the purest of intentions are misunderstood...but thanks for replying.
