Steam – prevent somebody from joining a public group

steam

Today some jerk joined the Arqade group on Steam and started spamming people with links to a lookalike phishing site. You know, like this but with "store.steampowered.com" instead of "twitter.com":

Image from the OpenDNS Phishing quiz. Hint: this one is a phish.

Now, I've kicked him from the group and flagged his account, but… it's a public group! Anybody can join. We'd rather not change that and still keep him out.

Is kicking sufficient? What else can I do?

Best Answer

You can't ban people from groups permanently, unfortunately.

What you can do is to report people via their profile and Steam will have a look at it.

You can also ban him from the groupchat.
