The people who you’re trying to warn don’t read the forums for such things until it’s too late
https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/3195-9FFB-BA06-F25B
Valve will never message you on the forums, Steam chat, Discord or anywhere else.
They will not add you as a friend.
The ONLY point of contact is Support tickets here.

There is even an official support article about this scam.
Scam: I Have Been Reported and Will Be Banned
As I said, the people who are likely to fall for such scams won't be reading this unfortunately. They don't come to the forums until it's too late (much like yourself just now). The regulars here are all very much aware of these dead obvious scams.
It was very nice of you to try and warn people though.
Indeed! OP had good intentions, after all.
Never trust anyone online until you can trust them. Assume the worst, until proven otherwise and never lose skepticism.
I taught this to my daughter every year since she was 5 years old. Just have to keep hammering it home, so if you have kids, dear reader, remind them often.
