Even a 9 year old wouldn't be that stupid. Just ask my little brothers that scam people on Runescape and Neopets daily.
Here's a scenario to muse over.
A 13 year-old kid reads about counter-strike hacking, and wants to do it. He also reads about Valve banning hackers, which scares him. He then reads about people hijacking Steam accounts. He thinks "well if I steal an account and get banned, it's no biggie!". So he concocts a half-assed scam (or reads about it somewhere) and tries it for the first time on someone. This someone states he works for Valve (no, really) and the kid is scared as hell.
Don't tell me you've never been so scared that you did stupid stuff, because it happens to everyone. This kid just happened to get owned in the process.
Also, this kid doesn't really have much logic anyway. Why else would he try to steal someone's account over MSN, while stating that he works for Valve? He obviously doesn't realize that most employees of major companies can spell correctly.
