yup, it works, but only works with dumb or too ignorant people.
I think they give you a fake link to the steam store, and when you try to login there to add he's supposed fried they steal the data you entered there. So no, never trust those people.
I used to have a friend who did that, but not to steal cs weapons, he would steal accounts with CS 1.6 and then sell each one for like 5€ to random students in our school, lol. They could always recover the stolen account, but once again, they were too ignorant to know how... So yup, it works, it just depends on the "victim"...
Same shit happens when our parents decide to "explore the internet" in our pc. 5 seconds later there's 500 new toolbars installed and a whole bunch of malware detected. surprise surprise. Sometimes i'm afraid my dad orders something from some suspicious website or something... So many times he calls me because he received some new email from "Microsoft" lol, i just stay there laughing and explain him later.

Someone really underestimates the amount of idiots or people who are inexperienced with the internet there is.

This. My sister has recently bought a smartphone and she installed some lite apps, those who came with ads at the top or bottom... "hey, i've got one message!". Imagine the rest.

Since i got a knife in CSGO, and used it in trading forums i have a lot of BOTs adding me and sending the same message "Hello my friend cant add me, please add him" and some link similar to SteamCommunity. But the funniest thing is that one of these BOTs ive reported, actually got what he wanted (i think so). I was searching market for other knife skins and fount this BOT selling a knife for 2x cheaper than others :D
Actually, i never thought people can be caught by such a shitty scam attempt.
