Yes, it's scam. it's not even the real steam link (2 m's in steam). Happens also when you place stuff on outpost.

How do you guys get those conversations? Do you accept random people on your friends list? is it in game?  is it on TF2C?

if you add stuff from your backpack on tf2outpost.com you will receive (sometimes) a friend request within 2 seconds. I don't really has to do something with tf2center. Not for me atleast.

This guy was a "friend" (hackor in disguise.)  Someone has probably compromised his steam account.

Which is why I asked him a few "do you know me" questions.
